Based on the setting you have made in the [Security Option] of the [BIOS 
FEATURES SETUP] section, the password prevents access to the system 
or the setup program by unauthorized users. Follow this procedure to set a 
new password or disable the password:

[Enter]. Select the [Security Options] item and set the field to:

[System]: The password is required every time the system is 
booted. This means only a person who knows the password can 
use this computer. 
b. 
[Setup]: The password is required only when you attempt to 
enter the BIOS Setup program.

program again.
