Using the Keyboard

The computer has a close-to-full-sized keyboard and an embedded numeric keypad,
separate cursor, lock, function and special keys.

Lock Keys

The keyboard has three lock keys which can be toggled on and off.

Caps Lock
Num Lock
<Fn> + <F11>
Scroll Lock
<Fn> + <F12>

Embedded Numeric Keypad

The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated
by small characters located on the upper right corner of the key caps. To simplify the
keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols are not printed on the keys.

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are in uppercase.
When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The
keys function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators +, -,
*, and /). Use this mode when doing a lot of numeric data entry. A better
solution would be to connect an external keypad.
<Fn> + <F11> only for certain models.
When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when the
up or down arrow keys are pressed respectively. Scroll Lock does not work
with some applications.

To reset the BIOS and system password on the Acer Aspire One D270, follow these steps:

1. Clearing BIOS Password:
- The BIOS password (Supervisor Password and User Password) is required during system POST or when entering the BIOS Setup menu.
- The system provides a software utility for clearing the password.

2. BIOS Recovery Procedure:
- There is a hotkey method for enabling BIOS recovery.
- If the password needs to be bypassed, use the provided recovery method.

3. Alternative Method Using Default Password:
- Some Acer laptops have a default BIOS password like "76 52 5080."
- Enter the default password if prompted.
- Navigate to Security in BIOS, select Set Supervisor Password, and enter the default password.
- Leave the new password fields blank to remove the password.
- Save changes and exit BIOS.

After performing these steps, the BIOS password should be cleared, and the system will no longer ask for it during startup.
