ABSTRACT:
An information processor equipped with a password storage for storing a password, which is inputted from outside for unlocking a password-locked condition of a storage device when booting the information processor. During a resume process, a controller unlocks the password-locked condition of the storage device using the password previously stored in the password storage. With this arrangement, when the information processor resumes its normal operating condition from a power saving mode, the operator does not need to input a password even if the information processor is installed in an unattended environment or a far remote local area.
