I've just helped a friend fix his BIOS after changing a flat
battery (the PC runs XP). He wants to be able to copy the
BIOS settings somewhere (to disk? to printer?) so that he can
fix it himself next time. Is there a way to do this?
He might want to try these two utilities, CMOSPUT.COM and
CMOSGET.COM (from 1988 no less :) ].

"The purpose of CMOSGET.COM is to save the CMOS configurations
once you have set them up correctly. This is an excellent
program to use to record and print your CMOS settings. Then,
you can then use CMOSPUT.COM using a bootable floppy to reload
the settings instantly. PC Magazine developed these programs to
speed things along when the battery is changed, but these
utilities should also solve your problem when the battery is
dead and cannot be replaced."
