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."
