Customizing Your VAIO Computer

This section briefly describes how to change the main settings of your VAIO computer. Among other things, you will learn 
how to use and customize the look of your Sony software and utilities.

❑ Setting the Password 

❑ Setting Up Your Computer with the VAIO Control Center 

❑ Using the Power Saving Modes 

❑ Managing Power with the VAIO Power Management

Setting the Password

In addition to the Windows password, you can use BIOS functions to set two types of passwords to protect your computer: 
the power-on password and the hard disk password.

Once you have set the power-on password, you will be prompted to enter the password after the VAIO logo appears to start 
your computer. The power-on password allows you to protect your computer from unauthorized access.

The hard disk password provides additional security for the data stored on your hard disk drive. If you set the hard disk 
password, other users will not be able to access the data without knowing the password, even if the password-protected flash 
memory storage or hard disk drive is removed from your computer and is installed in another computer.

In addition to the Windows password, you can use BIOS functions to set two types of passwords to protect your computer: 
the power-on password and the hard disk password.
