Setting a hard disk drive master and user password in 
System Setup
Make sure you choose a hard disk drive master password you 
can remember easily. If you set a hard disk drive user 
password and later forget the password or lose your password 
diskette, you will need to enter the hard disk drive master 
password in order to access your hard disk.
HINT: The hard disk drive shipped with your computer may not 
support the master password feature. When you attempt to set 
master password protection, your computer may alert you that 
this feature is not supported by your drive. If this happens and 
you want to establish a master password for your hard disk, 
contact your network administrator for instructions.
To register master and user passwords in System Setup:
