Securing Dell Inspiron using bios passwords

[shevah]

Hi,
I have been searching the web for a simple explanation what type of bios security I can use for my Dell Inspiron N5110.
Currently I am using the HDD password, but I want to understand better how it works. Is it with TPM or some other way?

Thanks.

Hi

You just go into the BIOS and set one...

All the best Brett

Yes so I did, but what is the difference between HDD password and System password? I haven't found it anywhare in the manual.

Hi

System password is simple to remove...bios password is a LOT harder...
