AMI's ROM BIOS provides a built-in Setup program, which allows the user to
modify the basic system configuration and hardware parameters. The
modified data will be stored in a battery-backed CMOS, so that data will be
retained even when the power is turned off. In general, the information saved
in the CMOS RAM will not need to be changed unless there is a configuration
change in the system, such as a hard drive replacement or when a device is
added.
It is possible for the CMOS battery to fail, which will cause data loss in the
CMOS only. If this happens you will need to reconfigure your BIOS settings.
