is it possible to set up ones computer so that when the computer is turned it requires you to enter a password to go any further?i know you can put passwords on each individual account on the login page but i want to be able to put a password on the entire system.If anyone knows anything it'd be helpful info for me.

Check your manual and set one up in the BIOS.
However, keep this in mind.............

It's called Power On Password and can be set in your BIOS, which you can
access by pressing a certain key during boot (the screen should tell you
which key, but you'll only have about 10 seconds to read & press).
