When was the CMOS made for the computer?
If you mean the CMOS setup, then it was likely made around 1984. That was the year that IBM released the AT computer. That was the first to make use of CMOS settings. If you mean CMOS-based logic chips, they have been around since at least the the mid 1970's.
Are pits memory stored o chips located on the motherboard?
cmos bios chip
In the movie blues brothers what does cmos mean?
Actually it's "SCMODS" not cmos and is an acronym for "State County Municipal Offender Data System"
You might flash flash the bios when?
Assuming you mean "flash the CMOS", when the CMOS settings are so messed up, you cannot access the BIOS.
What is a CMOS socket?
A CMOS socket is to plug a CMOS transistor into. Alternatively, a CMOS socket is to plug a CMOS integrated circuit into. CMOS, by the way, stands for, "Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor".
What is CMOS Failure in computer mean?
stop watching so much porn..
Where is cmos setup stored?
Cmos ram.
Where does the CMOS password appear?
Modern PCs store the CMOS password in the CMOS memory itself.
Why does my computer go straight to the bios?
You likely mean that it is going directly to the CMOS Setup. Every computer with a BIOS boots using the BIOS, but if the BIOS detects problems with the CMOS data, it goes to the CMOS setup so the user can fix it. What the BIOS does is verify to see if the calculated checksum of the stored data matches the recorded checksum. If they don't match, the CMOS settings are dumped and changed to the defaults, and the user is either prompted or taken to the CMOS settings.While the CMOS can be scrambled at random or due to misbehaving software, the main cause would likely be a bad CMOS battery. It could also mean the CMOS chip is failing (since some contain an integrated battery) or that there are other hardware errors -- such as a stuck keyboard or a bad hard drive. It generally should tell you why you are being sent there. In a rare situation, someone may have the CMOS jumper in the wrong place, perhaps because they bought a motherboard themselves and received it that way.
What is the mean by at89c51?
it is a microcontoller ( a version of 8051) At denotes ATMEL company C stands for CMOS 9 stands for flash memory
Is the hardware system configuration stored in CMOS?
yes it is stored in CMOS
Which of the following is not a computer language basic snobol cmos forth?
CMOS
