through Set Password at the CMOS setup main menu, this option will deny unauthorized users access to
your system (System) or the ability to modify your computer setup (BIOS Setup).

When you choose Setup, a password is required only when accessing the BIOS Setup. If
the correct password is not given, you can't enter the BIOS setup menu. (Default setting)

correct password is not given, the system will not start.
To disable security, select Set Password at main menu and then you will be asked to enter password. Do
