I want the password so my son does not have access, so I set up the password for sign on, however my son just clicks the cancel button and is able to get on. How do I set up a password that does not have cancel as an option? Thank you.

Windows 98 isn't a secure OS.

You can put a password on the BIOS. This will prevent Windows from loading until 
the correct password is entered. Just don't forget the password. (It can be reset 
if needed)

To do this, press either the F1, F2, or Delete key while the PC boots up. These are 
the most common keys used to enter the BIOS. (Your screen may say Press "xx" to enter 
setup. Press whatever key "xx" is)

Once in, carefully browse to the password protect part of the BIOS and enter your 
password. Save and exit.

Make sure you don't make any other changes because if you make a wrong change your 
PC may not boot back up.
