Cant Rid of HD password on startup.

#1 Post by bass1175 » Wed Jun 19, 2013 12:58 am

I enabled the Hard Drive password for testing, and it worked well. After that I enabled the Bios Password and no problem. I came to disable them and now still being prompted for a pass.

What I have under the security tab is this

Hardware Password Manager - Disabled
Supervisor Password - Enter
-Password Status - Enabled.
Lock UEFI Bios settings - Disabled
Set Max Length - Disabled
Password at unattended Boot - Disabled
Password at restart - Disabled

Power On Password - Enter
-Password Status - Disabled
Hard Disk1 Password - Enter
-Password Status - User + Master


I cant go to the password status for the supervisor password.

I know the password so thats not an issue and windows starts but what gives here that I keep getting prompted and how do I Disable the supervisor password, if it skips this option.

Also Iam not 100% sure if the password on startup is for the HD or something else. But I did activate all.

Appreciate your input.

Update - Solved
Just figured out to disable them you have to go into the correlating field and enter the current password while leaving the New Password field blank.
