Lol its ok dude, CMOS is the storage module for the BIOS, because the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is a EEPROM Chip that dosn't allow writes unless a whole new BIOS is being flashed to the chip, so temporary values are stored in the CMOS which is a small battery powered storage cell for the BIOS. To clear your CMOS you can do it the easy but not entirely comprehensive way which is to simply go into BIOS and change it to Factory Defaults, this will fix 95% of Bad setting related problems, however the more comprehensive and surefire way is to open up your Computer and remove the CMOS battery (Typically a small round and silver watch battery attached to the mainboard, unless you have a mac that is, then it will look like a cut in half AA Battery) for about 30-40 Mins (make sure your computer is completely disconnected from any power source during this period), then simply place the battery back in after that time and your issue should be fixed. This works by starving the CMOS chip of power and it loses any values (settings) that were stored to it effectively giving you pure factory default.
Get back to us with the result! Good luck! THEfog On 14/05/2010 10:09 PM, "FrozenLord" <[email protected]> wrote: Uhhh, I'm not sure... Could you please tell me how to do so? Defaulting the CMOS doesn't ring a bell at the moment.
