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.
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.

Yes CMOS is available in modern computer. CMOS definition: Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor, or CMOS, typically refers to a battery-powered memory chip in your computer that stores startup information. Your computer's basic input/output system (BIOS) uses this information when starting your computer. CMOS-related error messages could be caused by a faulty or discharged battery. The battery can become discharged if your computer has been turned off for a very long time. To resolve CMOS-related errors, check the information that came with your computer or contact your computer manufacturer. Because your CMOS settings are specific to your computer's hardware, Microsoft can't provide specific instructions for changing them.
