    I recently enabled the prompt for bios password on boot option, and would like to add information to that screen. I have security stickers on the bottom ( www.stuffbak.com, www.stoptheft.com) and would like to reference these on the screen.

    For example:

    Please enter BIOS password to continue boot:

    Please see bottom of laptop for security and owner information. Laptop is protected by passive and active security measures.




    thanks!

    Well, I do not know how someone would do that, but I do know you can customize a bios logo, so maybe you could just copy in text for the logo with that exact thing. Here is a link to it.

    And I think ASUS has a utility that you are able to customize your boot logo, easier than with this utility. I would google that or look on the ASUS support site for a similar download.
