What is the name of the Bios program that edits values in CMOS RAM?
CMOS Setup
What program allows the alteration of CMOS settings?
CMOS settings are altered by the BIOS program while in setup mode.
How can you access the BIOS setup program?
By pressing certain keys (depending on the specific computer and BIOS program) during the boot process, ex: F12, F2, F8,
Do all systems use the same setup to enter cmos setup?
No, not all systems use the same method to enter CMOS setup. Some systems allow access to CMOS setup by pressing DEL during start up and others by pressing F2.
On older computers changes are made to the CMOS setup data using a setup program stored on what?
a Floppy Disk
Do all systems use the same method to enter CMOS setup?
No, not all systems use the same method to enter CMOS setup. Some systems allow access to CMOS setup by pressing DEL during start up and others by pressing F2.
On newer computers you usually change the data stored in cmos by accessing the setup program stored in rom bios you access the program by pressing a key or combination of keys during the boot proces?
True
Where is cmos setup stored?
Cmos ram.
What enables you to access and modify CMOS data?
To access and modify the CMOS data, you would need a CMOS setup utility. Originally, in the IBM AT and a few close clones, it required a separate utility on a diskette. However, manufacturers soon added this utility the the ROM BIOS. So even today, all you have to do is enter CMOS setup is to press a certain day upon booting the system. Delete, F1, and F2 are some of the common keys to use for entering the CMOS setup utility.
On newer computers how do you usually change the data stored in CMOS?
By accessing the setup program stored in ROM BIOS.
What is a BIOS setup bit?
Basically a program in the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) in a computer that can change the value of the CMOS RAM.
What can be done to protect the CMOS Setup program from accidental change?
always ensure you have a healthy cmos battery as if it dies then all changes to the bios will usually be removed unless the motherboard has more than 1 battery
