If you set a password when you ran the SETUP program, you
must enter it every time you turn on or reset the computer.
Follow these steps to use your password:
1. If you do not have a hard disk, insert your operating system
diskette in drive A.
2. Turn on or reset the computer. You see this prompt:
PASSWORD PLEASE:
3. Type your password. You see an asterisk for each character
you type. Then press
4. After you type the password correctly and press
see the message,
system and displays the command prompt.
If you don't enter the correct password the first time you type
it, you can try two more times. If you haven't entered the
correct password on the third try, the computer locks up to
prevent unauthorized access.
If you do not remember your password, see "Password
Problems" in Chapter 6.
