 Enter and confirm a password in the Set Operating System Password dialog and click OK.

An operating system password must be at least six characters long.

You can also set an operating system password by clicking Set Password on the toolbar, in the OS

section of the main menu, or in the context menu, invoked by a right-click.

8.3.4 Setting operating system properties

Acronis OS Selector automatically determines properties of all operating systems installed on a

machine. If needed, you can set them manually by clicking Properties in the Operations section of

the main window sidebar, boot menu, the respective main menu, toolbar or context menu items.

8.3.4.1 General properties

This section allows you to change the name and icon for any operating system listed in the boot

menu.

8.3.4.2 Boot configuration

This section allows you to set the following boot parameters:

 Write Boot Sector – write boot sector each time an operating system boots

 Boot as MS-DOS 7.1 – can be set for operating systems compatible with MS-DOS 7.1+ that were

not automatically located by Acronis OS Selector

 Boot as OS/2 – can be set for operating systems compatible with OS/2 that were not

automatically located by Acronis OS Selector

 Enable large disks support – enables large disks support for Windows 98/Me operating systems

only.

8.3.4.3 Partitions

Acronis OS Selector allows you to hide hard disk volumes (except for the system). To hide a volume,

select it and enable the Hidden option for it. This is not applicable to Windows 2000 volumes. You

can perform this operation under that operating system using the Advanced section.

8.3.4.4 Disks

Generally, Windows can boot from the HDD only if its boot files reside on the first (according to BIOS)

hard disk — see Installing and using several operating systems on a single machine (p. 65). If you

connect a live system HDD, taken from another computer (where it was the first disk), to your

computer, where it becomes the second (3rd etc.) disk, boot from that HDD will be impossible, even

if the hardware is identical on both computers. OS Selector can manage situations like that and

automatically set the disk order required for booting the selected operating system.

Moreover, you can choose the disk order when installing a new Windows operating system so that its

boot files are installed on the same disk where its main part resides — see Installing another

Windows OS on a different disk (p. 67). Doing so makes operating systems on your first, second and

so on disks fully independent. You will be able, for example, to boot from the second disk even if the

first one is damaged or disconnected. You also will be able to individually back up and restore each

system disk: every operating system will be bootable when restored to its disk.

Changing the disk order for an operation system already installed may prevent that system from loading.
