Claim:
1. A method of operating an electronic apparatus, wherein the electronic apparatus comprises a sensing unit group having a plurality of sensors, a boot firmware, a power key, a touch screen, and a controller coupled to the power key, the boot firmware and the touch screen, and the method comprises: receiving a setting operation corresponding to a specific operation behavior through a setting interface of the electronic apparatus so as to select a plurality of ones among the sensors in the sensing unit group; creating an unlocking information according to the setting operation, wherein the unlocking information comprises an enabling sequence of the selected sensors; delivering a notice signal to the boot firmware by the controller if the controller receives a power-enabling signal from the power supply when the electronic apparatus is under a shutdown mode state; displaying a prompt message at the touch screen through the boot firmware; receiving a trigger event, wherein the trigger event is generated by the sensors selected in the sensing unit group to sense the specific operation behavior of a user; judging whether or not the trigger event conforms to the unlocking information; and when the trigger event conforms to the unlocking information, judging whether or not receiving the power-enabling signal once again from the power supply within a preset time period after the trigger event conforming to the unlocking information; executing a boot action through the boot firmware if receiving the power-enabling signal within the preset time period; and displaying the prompt message at the touch screen through the boot firmware if not receiving the power-enabling signal within the preset time period.
