setting a bootup password?
Check your system manual and/or the manufacturer's support web site. This
is a very basic feature and almost all computers support it. "verymad" wrote in message ...

So change it to Enable and set a password. Read the instructions on the BIOS
screen to determine which keys to use to toggle settings. -- Crosspost, do not multipost http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "verymad" wrote in message ...

Hi,
The bios will have a password "setting" where you may either choose 'setup' or 'startup'. Choose startup and type your password.You can bypass this on the mother board itself by connecting 2 jumpers. That's on the older boards. I don't know about the newest. Cheers -- Spook "verymad" wrote in message ...
