Power-on Password



Power-on Password

To service Type 8639 computers with an active and unknown power-on password, power-off the computer and do the following:

NOTE: This procedure will not remove the Administrator Password. 
  1.  Unplug the power cord and remove the top cover.
  2.  Refer to 'System Board (Type 8639)' and locate the  system board type you are servicing. Depending on  the system board, the password is reset by a jumper or  switch block.
  3.  Move the password jumper to connect the center pin and the pin on the  opposite end of the connector, or, change the switch settings  as appropriate.
  4.  Power-on the computer. The system senses the change in the  position and erases the password.

  5.  Remind the user to enter a new password when service is  complete.
