Erasing a Lost or Forgotten Administrator Password: This section applies to
lost or forgotten administrator passwords that are not protected by enhanced
security. For information on lost or forgotten passwords that are protected by
enhanced security, refer to “Erasing a Lost or Forgotten Administrator Password
Protected by Enhanced Security” on page 38.
If you have lost or forgotten your administrator password and enhanced security is
disabled, you must remove the computer cover and move the Clear CMOS Request
jumper (also referred to as the password jumper) on the system board in order to
erase the password so that you can regain access to the Configuration/Setup Utility
program.
See Chapter 7, “Installing Options Overview” on page 81 for instructions on
removing the computer cover and moving jumpers. Refer to the system board label
inside the computer for the location of the Clear CMOS Request jumper.
Important
If you move the Clear CMOS Request jumper, you will lose all setup data stored
in the computer, and you will need to reconfigure the computer. Use the
Configuration/Setup Utility program to reconfigure the computer and to set a
new password.
