Hardware controlled Passwords 
Hardware controlled passwords are set using the Setup Utility program. For more 
information about passwords, see “Using passwords” on page 51. 
Operating system password 
An operating system password is very similar to a power-on password and denies 
access to the computer by an unauthorized user when the password is activated. 
The computer is unusable until the password is entered and recognized by the 
computer. 
Vital product data 
Each computer has a unique Vital Product Data (VPD) code stored in the 
nonvolatile memory on the system board. After you replace the system board, the 
VPD must be updated. To update the VPD, see “Flash update procedures.” 
BIOS levels 
An incorrect level of BIOS can cause false errors and unnecessary FRU 
replacement. Use the following information to determine the current level of BIOS 
installed in the computer, the latest BIOS available for the computer, and where to 
obtain the latest level of BIOS. 
v 
 
 To determine the current Level of BIOS: 
– 
 
 Start the Setup Utility. 
– 
 
 Select Standard CMOS Features.

							Updating (flashing) BIOS from a diskette 
1.   
 Insert a system program update (flash) diskette into the diskette drive. system 
program updates are available at http://www.lenovo.com/support on the 
World Wide Web. 
2. 
 
 Turn on the computer. If it is already on, you must turn it off and back on. The 
update begins. 
3. 
 
 Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the update.
Recovering from a POST/BIOS update failure 
Attention: 
 If an interruption occurs during a POST/BIOS update (flash update), 
the computer might not restart correctly. If this occurs, perform the following 
procedure (also known as a Boot-block recovery).
Note:
   If the computer has no internal diskette drive, an optional USB diskette 
drive must be connected to use the BIOS flash diskette. 
1. 
 
 Turn the computer off and insert the special recovery BIOS flash diskette in the 
diskette drive. 
2. 
 
 Turn the computer on. 
3. 
 
 The recovery session takes two to three minutes. During this time you will hear 
a series of beeps. After the update session completes, the series of beeps ends 
and the computer automatically turns off. There is no video during the 
recovery session. 
4. 
 
 Remove the special recovery BIOS flash diskette from the diskette drive.

							Power management 
Power management reduces the power consumption of certain components of the 
computer such as the system power supply, processor, hard disk drives, and some 
monitors. 
Automatic configuration and power interface (ACPI) BIOS 
Being an ACPI BIOS system, the operating system is allowed to control the power 
management features of the computer and the setting for Advanced Power 
Management (APM) BIOS mode is ignored. Not all operating systems support 
ACPI BIOS mode. 
Automatic Power-On features 
The Automatic Power-On features within the Power Management menu allow you 
to enable and disable features that turn on the computer automatically. 
v   
 Serial Port A Ring Detect: With this feature set to Enabled and an external 
modem connected to serial port (COM1), the computer will turn on 
automatically when a ring is detected on the modem. 
v 
 
 PCI Modem Ring Detect: With this feature set to Enabled, the computer will 
turn on automatically when a ring is detected on the internal modem. 
v 
 
 PCI Wake Up: This feature allows PCI cards that support this capability to wake 
the system. 
v 
 
 Wake Up on Alarm: Yo u can specify a date and time at which the computer will 
be turned on automatically. This can be either a single event or a daily event. 
v 
 
 Wake on LAN: If the computer has a properly configured token-ring or Ethernet 
LAN adapter card that is Wake on LAN-enabled and there is remote network 
management software, you can use the Wake on LAN feature. When you set 
Wake on LAN to Enabled, the computer will turn on when it receives a specific 
signal from another computer on the local area network (LAN).

							Recovering software 
When you install a new hard disk drive, you also need a set of Product Recovery 
discs. The set of Product Recovery discs will enable the contents of the hard disk to 
be restored to the same state as when the computer was originally shipped from 
the factory. For more information on recovering factory-installed software, refer to 
“Recovering software” in the User Guide.
