Using a Password
7 When Hardware Setup prompts you to do so, verify the
password by typing it again and pressing
If the two passwords match, Hardware Setup displays:
Registered.

error message. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to enter the password
again.

The Owner String will appear with the password message any
time you start or restart the computer.

diskette.
Protecting Against Forgetfulness
If you ever forget your password, a password service diskette lets
you bypass the password when starting your computer. You can
create a password service diskette when you register a password in
TSETUP.
If you forget your password and have lost your password ser-
vice diskette, contact Toshiba service (US telephone number
800-999-4273).
To register a password in TSETUP and create a password service
diskette, follow these steps:
1 Insert a diskette into the diskette drive.
Run TSETUP outside of Windows 95, at a system prompt. If
you try to run TSETUP from an MS-DOS session under
Windows 95, results can be unpredictable.
2 If you're currently in Windows 95, click Start, then click
Shut Down.
