A note about passwords

The BIOS Setup program allows you to specify passwords in the Main

menu. The passwords control access to the BIOS during system

startup. Passwords are not case sensitive, meaning, passwords typed

in either uppercase or lowercase letters are accepted. The BIOS Setup

program allows you to specify two different passwords: a Supervisor

password and a User password. If you did not set a Supervisor

password, anyone can access the BIOS Setup program. If you did, the

Supervisor password is required to enter the BIOS Setup program and

to gain full access to the configuration fields.
