I want my laptop to prompt for a password before Windows loads. I set this up in the BIOS and it worked for about two weeks, but then the PC somehow forgot all about it and just started loading with no password prompt. I tried to configure it again, and the exact same thing happened.

I have a Dell Studio XPS (about 4 months old) with Windows Vista Home Premium.

Basically I just don't want my files/info to be accessible if the laptop is stolen.

Does anyone know why the password only seems to be working temporarily?

Thanks!
