troisième tentative infructueuse, le système affiche un message d'erreur indiquant que le système s'est
arrêté et qu'il doit être éteint.

Même après l'arrêt et le redémarrage du système, le message d'erreur continue à s'afficher tant que vous
n'avez pas entré le mot de passe approprié.

REMARQUE : Vous pouvez utiliser l'option Password Status (État du mot de passe) conjointement

avec les options System Password (Mot de passe du système) et Setup Password (Mot de passe de
configuration) pour mieux protéger le système contre toute modification non autorisée.

Deleting or changing an existing system and/or setup password

Ensure that the Password jumper is set to enabled and the Password Status is set to Unlocked before

attempting to delete or change the existing System and/or Setup password. You cannot delete or change

an existing System or Setup password if the Password Status is Locked.

1.

To enter System Setup, press <F2> immediately after a power-on or restart.

2. In the System Setup Main Menu, select System BIOS and press <Enter>.

The System BIOS screen is displayed.

3. In the System BIOS Screen, select System Security and press <Enter>.

The System Security screen is displayed.

4. In the System Security screen, verify that Password Status is set to Unlocked.
5. Select System Password, alter or delete the existing system password and press <Enter> or <Tab>.
6. Select Setup Password, alter or delete the existing setup password and press <Enter> or <Tab>.

REMARQUE : If you change the System and/or Setup password, a message prompts you to re-
enter the new password. If you delete the System and/or Setup password, a message prompts
you to confirm the deletion.

7. Press <Esc> to return to the System BIOS screen. Press <Esc> again, and a message prompts you to

save the changes.

Operating with a setup password enabled

If Setup Password is Enabled, enter the correct setup password before modifying most of the System
Setup options.

If you do not enter the correct password in three attempts, the system displays the message
Invalid Password! Number of unsuccessful password attempts: <x> System Halted!

Must power down.

Even after you shut down and restart the system, the error message is displayed until the correct
password is entered. The following options are exceptions:

• If System Password is not Enabled and is not locked through the Password Status option, you can

assign a system password.

• You cannot disable or change an existing system password.

REMARQUE : You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with the Setup Password
option to protect the system password from unauthorized changes.
