Hey Everyone,
I have been trying to find a freeware program that makes you type a password at startup in order to get access to the computer. Does anyone know of a good program like this for Windows ME?
Thanks,
Steve |

Viceroy, there is an alternative way of password protecting your computer and that is to set up a bios password.
No need to download any programs
Just enter the bios on start up of your PC usually by pressing F4 or DELETE keys
u will see a bios menu there should be one that says passwords
enter that menu and enter your password
Exit the bios by saving changes.
Next time u boot up your PC will ask u for a password, u will have 3 trys and if u fail it will not boot into windows.
If you ever forget the bios password open up the PC and remove the back up battery from the motherboard, put it back in after about 30 minutes or so and the bios will NOT ask u for the password.
Hope thats of some help to u dOOd :)
Peace
