Setting Up BIOS Password: A Step-by-Step Guide

Setting up a BIOS password is a critical step in securing your computer from unauthorized access. The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is firmware that initializes hardware components before the operating system starts.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to set up a BIOS password:

1. Restart your computer and enter the BIOS setup by pressing a specific key during the boot process (usually Del, F2, or F12).
2. Navigate to the Security tab using the arrow keys.
3. Locate the Set Supervisor Password option and press Enter.
4. Enter your desired password and confirm it.
5. Save and exit the BIOS setup by pressing the designated key (often F10).

It's essential to choose a strong and unique password that you can remember but others can't guess easily. Avoid using common passwords like '123456' or 'password'.
