Chapter 3 Using the Motion C5 43
Setting up a hard disk drive (HDD) password
You can use a HDD password to protect the computer and the hard disk drive. The
computer cannot be started without the HDD password, and the data on the disk drive
cannot be accessed, even if it is removed and attached to a different computer.
To set up an HDD password
1. Start the Motion C5 (page 5).
2. When the Motion Computing splash screen appears, tap the screen with the pen. On
the TrustedCore menu, tap Launch System Setup. If you miss the splash screen, restart
the computer and try again.
3. In the PhoenixBIOS Set Up Utility, tap Security on the menu bar.
4. Double-tap Enter for Set Hard Disk Password.
5. Enter a password using the on-screen keyboard and tap Enter. Enter the password
again to confirm it and tap Enter.
6. Tap Exit, then select Exit Saving Changes.
To clear the password, double-tap Enter for Set Hard Disk Password. Enter the current
password, then tap Enter twice to leave the Enter New Password fields blank.
