IBM MT 9448 User Manual
A
total
progress
bar
allows
you
to
audit
this
process,
which
will
take
about
8
minutes.
The
final
recovery
disc
may
be
safely
removed
during
this
time,
but
may
also
be
left
in
the
optical
drive
since
it
is
not
bootable.
7.
You
will
then
be
prompted
to
restart
the
computer.
Select
Yes
.
A
warning
window
appears,
giving
you
one
last
chance
to
stop
the
restart,
but
disappears
automatically
after
about
5
seconds.
File
processing
continues
in
DOS
full
screen
mode
for
about
two
minutes
and
the
computer
restarts
to
the
Windows
®
desktop.
No
user
intervention
is
required
(and
should
be
avoided)
after
this
point.
8.
Windows
setup
continues
on
the
desktop
and
DOS
window
for
IBM
system
setup,
with
progress
measured
by
a
Factory
Preinstallation
window
on
the
right
side
of
the
screen.
The
processes
are
updating
installed
softwares.
A
warning
that
antivirus
software
is
not
installed
appears
repeatedly
in
the
system
tray,
but
this
should
be
ignored.
The
entire
process
at
desktop
takes
about
25
minutes.
9.
Then
the
computer
restarts,
does
some
more
DOS
full
screen
processing,
and
restarts
again
to
a
Windows
desktop
where
factory
preinstallation
continues
for
about
12
more
minutes,
another
restart
to
a
DOS
screen
and
then
back
to
the
Windows
splash
screen
and
back
to
the
desktop
for
more
preinstallation.
This
lasts
about
10
more
minutes
and
the
computer
restarts
to
do
NTFS
conversion
and
then
restarts
to
the
OOBE
(Out
of
Box
Experience)
environment.
Passwords
As
many
as
three
passwords
may
be
needed
for
any
ThinkPad
computer:
the
power-on
password
(POP),
the
hard-disk
password
(HDP),
and
the
supervisor
password
(SVP).
If
any
of
these
passwords
has
been
set,
a
prompt
for
it
appears
on
the
screen
whenever
the
computer
is
turned
on.
The
computer
does
not
start
until
the
password
is
entered.
Exception:
If
only
an
SVP
is
installed,
the
password
prompt
does
not
appear
when
the
operating
system
is
booted.
Power-on
password:
A
power-on
password
(POP)
protects
the
system
from
being
powered
on
by
an
unauthorized
person.
The
password
must
be
entered
before
an
operating
system
can
be
booted.
Hard-disk
password:
There
are
two
hard-disk
passwords
(HDPs):
v
User
HDP—for
the
user
v
Master
HDP—for
the
system
administrator,
who
can
use
it
to
get
access
to
the
hard
disk
even
if
the
user
has
changed
the
user
HDP
Note:
There
are
two
modes
for
the
HDP:
User
only
and
Master
+
User
.
The
Master
+
User
mode
requires
two
HDPs;
the
system
administrator
enters
both
in
the
same
operation.
The
system
administrator
then
provides
the
user
HDP
to
the
system
user.
