5.1.1.1 Changing Owner and/or Organization by Modifying Registry
The registry has a variety of information required to operate Windows XP.
Changing the registry incorrectly may cause Windows XP to be started improperly. Change the registry with
sufficient care.
If Windows XP is not started or started improperly after change of the registry, reinstall Windows XP.
Be sure to change the registry before installing applications in FC-N21S. If the registry is changed after some
applications are installed, the changed registry may not be reflected on the versions of the applications.
However, Windows XP can operate normally.
Only symptoms such as shown by an example below may appear:
Ex: When organization and/or owner are changed after Microsoft Excel is installed,
Selecting [Control Panel] → [Organization/owner in System] causes the organization and owner after
registry change to be displayed.
The version information in the Help file of Excel indicates the organization and owner after registry
change.
(1) Registry change procedure
1.
Start WindowsXP.
2.
Click [Start] → [Run…], type "c:\windows\regedit.exe", and click [OK].
3.
Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion.
4.
Click the following items and change the organization and/or owner.
Registered Organization
Registered Owner
5.
Click [File] → [Exit] to exit the registry editor.
(2) Organization/owner check procedure
1.
Start Windows XP.
2.
Right-click [My Computer] and click [Property].
(3) Microsoft Windows XP Professional License Label (COA label)
FC-N21S of pre-installed mode has Last Known Good Configuration Microsoft Windows XP Professional license label (COA label)
pasted on the bottom of FC-N21S.
The label includes some important information including "Product ID". Take sufficient care on that label so that the label may not be
damaged, broken or peeled off.
The Microsoft Windows XP Professional license label (COA label) shall not be re-issued if it is damaged,
broken or peeled off.
Note: Because the COA label is partially transparent and not laminated, it seems to get a hole or be broken.
However, it does not indicate that the label is damaged. The transparent part of the label may have a
unique shape due to special processing to be different from others.
5.1.2 Re-setup of Windows XP in FC-N21S of Pre-installed Model
5.1.2.1 Re-setup
Re-setup can recover the damaged system of FC-N21S to the normal state.
However, files stored in the HDD are erased. In addition, it takes much time for re-setup. Check if re-setup is absolutely required before
starting the job.
(1) Situations requiring re-setup
Provide re-setup for the system in FC-N21S in the following situations:
1.
Recovering system from trouble
− At power-on, the power lamp goes on but Windows does not start.
− One or more programs in the HDD do not operate.
− System files in the HDD are erased unintentionally.
− Repairing the system cannot solve problem.
− Started Windows XP in the safe mode, but problem cannot be solved.
2.
Changing settings of Windows
− The settings of Windows are required to be recovered to the factory defaults.
3.
Changing the settings of the HDD
− The capacity of drive C is required to be changed.
− The HDD is required to be configured with only a single partition.
The re-setup is to return the system in FC-N21S to that in the same state at shipment from factory based on the
data stored in the recovery CD-ROMs if the system is damaged.
The re-setup is also required after the configuration of the HDD is changed. It is because formatting (initializing)
the HDD causes the system to be erased.
(2) System repair procedure
The system can be repaired in either of the following two ways. The proper way is dependent on the system status. Try the simpler
method first in the order shown below:
1.
Repair the system by using the [Last Known Good Configuration] menu.
2.
Provide the system with re-setup by using the recovery CD-ROMs.
Notes on re-setup
Make a backup of data.
Some re-setup methods may erase all or a part of data you have created. For the re-setup methods, see
"5.1.2.2 Standard and Custom Re-setups".
Write down the settings of FC-N21S.
Re-setup returns all settings including network settings to the factory defaults.
To use FC-N21S with the same settings as the current ones after re-setup, write down the current settings of
FC-N21S.
Remove peripheral devices purchased separately from FC-N21S.
Provide re-setup under the condition that devices coming with FC-N21C are only connected to FC-N21S.
Peripheral devices purchased separately should be connected to FC-N21S after re-setup.
If a supervisor password is set, cancel the supervisor password or change the BIOS SETUP as follows:
Select [Security] → [Password on boot] → [Disabled].
For the supervisor password, see "4.4.1 Security".
Do not suspend re-setup.
After starting re-setup, be sure to complete it according to the procedure described in this guide. If
suspended, restart the re-setup from the beginning.
Install applications purchased separately after completion of re-setup.
All applications purchased separately are also erased by re-setup. Install them after re-setup is completed.
5.1.2.2
Standard and Custom Re-setups
There are two re-setups, or standard and custom re-setups. The following describes five re-setup patterns.
For file systems NTFS, FAT32 and FAT16, click [Start] → [Help and Support]. (Searching with keyword such as "File System", you can
view the detailed information.)
(1) Standard re-setup
Every hard disk drive in FC-N21S can be returned to the factory default. Beginners and users unfamiliar with HDD should always
follow the procedure for re-setup.
(2) Custom re-setup
For re-setup of drive C only or change of the capacity of drive C, follow the procedure.
Select any of the following three procedures and go to Subsection "5.1.5 Custom Re-setup".
1.
Re-setup of drive C only in the NTFS format.
Provide only drive C in the built-in HDD with re-setup in the NTFS format.
Drive D and the other drives are not formatted and the data in the drives is left as it is.
* The capacity of drive C is not changed.
2.
Re-setup of entire HDD area to a single partition
Provide the entire area of the built-in HDD with re-setup to a single partition in the NTFS format. Drive C can have the maximum
capacity.
Data in the built-in HDD is erased completely. Be sure to make backup copy of the data.
3.
Free re-setup of HDD area (re-setup by user setting)
Provide the area of the built-in HDD with re-setup to a combination of partitions of 5GB or larger in 1GB freely.
Data in the built-in HDD is erased completely. Be sure to back up the data.
5.1.3 Repairing System
The following describes the troubleshooting procedures when the system cannot be started normally due to change of system
configuration.
5.1.3.1 Repairing System by Using Configuration in the Last Normal Starting

6.1 SETTING PASSWORD ON BIOS SETUP UTILITY
You can set a password intended to limit users of starting the system on the BIOS SETUP Utility.
If you set a password, any user must enter the password for the following operations. This can increase the security feature:
Starting BIOS SETUP Utility
Starting system
6.1.1 Security by Password at Start of BIOS SETUP Utility
Setting supervisor and user passwords on the BIOS SETUP Utility can limit users of starting the system.
If you set a password, any user must enter the password for the following operations:
Starting BIOS SETUP Utility
Starting system.
This can increase the security feature:
Any user starting the BIOS SETUP Utility with the user password can only provide limited items with settings. This can prohibit users
from changing important items if he or she is not the administrator of the specific PC.
For the password setting procedure, see "4.4.1 Security".
6.1.2 HDD Password
You can set a password for the HDD (primary master)
If a HDD password is set for a PC, the password must be entered to another PC in which this HDD is installed.
The HDD password is intended to prevent the HDD from being used illegally in a PC other than yours. Even if a
HDD password is set, entering the password is not required on booting your PC.
There are two HDD passwords, or HDD master and HDD user passwords.
The HDD master password is intended to release the HDD user password.
The HDD user password is intended to authenticate your PC and the HDD installed in the PC.
For the setting procedure, see "4.4.1 Security".
6.2 I/O LOCK FEATURE
The I/O lock disables the I/O feature, measures to interchange data with external devices, on the BIOS SETUP Utility.
To use the I/O lock feature, set supervisor and user passwords to limit accessing to the BIOS SETUP Utility.
6.3 LOGIN PASSWORD
The login password is intended to limit users of OS.
If a login password is set, the password must be entered to login to the OS.

1.
Click [Start] → [Control Panel].
2.
Click [User Accounts] to open the dialog box.
3.

A user having the administrator account of a PC can create or change passwords for all users of the PC. A
user having a limited account can only create or change his or her own password or create a tip of the
password.
If a user having the administrator account of a PC changes a password of a user, then the user loses all the
passwords stored for EFS encrypted files, personal certificate, and web site or network resources.
6.4 SECURITY CHIP
Setting the security chip allows electronic mails and files to be encrypted and prohibited from being opened without an authentication
password.
In addition, FC-N21S is equipped with a security chip called TPM (Trusted Platform Module) in its major part to store encryption keys in
the security chip. Thus, if only the HDD is withdrawn, the data in the HDD will not be read.
To use the security chip, set supervisor and user passwords to restrict accessing to the BIOS SETUP Utility.
See "5.2.2 Infineon Security Platform" for details.
6.5 FINGERPRINT AUTHENTICATION PASSWORD
The fingerprint authentication password is intended to provide authentication by fingerprints using the built-in fingerprint sensor instead of
