What else can I help you with?
Does CMOS configuration chip contains a very small amount of memory?
yes, NVROM, Non Volatile memory
Computers today store most configuration information in?
CMOS memory
Does the CMOS configuration chip contain information about how memory is allocated?
yes
Where is the saved BIOS configuration data sotred?
BIOS configuration data is stored in CMOS memory. That is where all the basic hardware settings are kept. CMOS has traditionally been volatile memory, so a battery is required. Newer BIOSes often use NVRAM.
Motherboard settings are stored in a small amount of RAM located on the firmware chip and are called?
CMOS or BIOS configuration settings
What are the use of battery?
CMOS battery of your laptop maintains hard disk, time and date, and other drivers and configuration settings in a CMOS memory. You will see these tiny CMOS batteries connected directly to the laptop’s motherboard.
The CMOS configuration chip does what?
it contains a small amount of memory, or RAM, enough to configuration or setup information about the computer. This chip is responsible for remembering the current date and time, which hard drives and floppy drives are present, how the serial and parallel are configured and so forth. When the computer is first turned on, it looks to this CMOS chip to find out what hardware it should expect to find.
Has the size of CMOS memory increased or decreased?
CMOS memory size has increased.
Is the hardware system configuration stored in CMOS?
yes it is stored in CMOS
Is CMOS a special kind of memory that uses a great deal of power?
No it uses little power
Where does the CMOS password appear?
Modern PCs store the CMOS password in the CMOS memory itself.
Which RAM chips and flash memory chips are used for high speeds and consumes little power?
CMOS
