[. . . ] If you forget the master password and install the drive in another system, you cannot access the data on the hard drive. If you install the hard drive in another PowerMate system with hard disk drive security enabled, you must enter the password to allow access to the hard drive. If this PowerMate system does not support hard disk drive security, you cannot access the data on the hard drive. With hard disk drive security enabled on the original NEC PowerMate CT system, the system boots normally. If you install the hard drive in another NEC PowerMate system with security enabled, you must enter the master password to access the hard drive. If the hard drive is installed in another NEC PowerMate CT system with security disabled, the system prompts you to enter the master password and then a new user password. Configuring the System 3-31 Moving the Hard Drive When a password protected hard drive is moved from its original system and installed in another system, error messages appear indicating that the drive is locked. Next, the Security Setup screen appears requiring the user to enter the master password to unlock the drive. To take advantage of HDD password protection in another system, the system must be equipped with the same HDD password protection feature. To determine if the system has HDD password protection, check the Security Menu in the BIOS Setup to see if there are provisions for establishing HDD passwords. FLASH Utility The system BIOS resides on a flash read only memory (ROM) chip in your system. Before starting the BIOS update, NECC recommends that you first contact NECC for assistance (see Chapter 6 for contact information). You can get the diskette from NECC or download the BIOS from the NECC website. 7. Write down the BIOS Setup parameters currently set on your system. When the flash upgrade menu appears, choose Update Flash Memory Area from a file. When the menu asks you to enter a path/filename, use the arrow keys to select the ". bio" file and press Enter. After the upgrade completes, remove the diskette. 3-32 Configuring the System 8. Reboot the system and start the Setup program.
