Power-on password

The Computer Setup power-on password prevents unauthorized use of the computer. After this
password is set, it must be entered each time the computer is turned on.
Note the following characteristics of a power-on password:
●
It is not displayed as it is set, entered, changed, or deleted.
●
It must be set and entered with the same keys. For example, a power-on password set with
keyboard number keys will not be recognized if you enter it thereafter with embedded numeric
keypad number keys.
●
It can include any combination of up to 32 letters and numbers and is not case sensitive.
