The computer uses the BIOS to set all the basic setting for all the motherboard functions and them saves the settings to the CMOS. By restoring the CMOS to default (By either entering the BIOS Setup which is usually hitting f12 or end on startup, or changing the connector pins that are related to your motherboard (check motherboard manual) ) You will remove all modifications you have changed in the past. Everything should work fine if you do this. You will just loose any changes you have made.

Is the hardware system configuration stored in CMOS?
yes it is stored in CMOS
What is the primary purpose of the CMOS?
The CMOS is a physical part of the motherboard: it is a memory chip that houses setting configurations and is powered by the on board battery.
When should you use a default route?
When you have routing enabled then you need default route (also calleddefault network or Gateway of Last Resort). You do not need default routeif you don't use routing. For example if you just have one router in your network there is no need for default route. When you have more than one router in a network you need default route.Note: If you connect to WAN (Internet) you need default route. The default route allows connection with Internet. If you are not using WAN and have one router than there is not need for default route but in these days everyone connects to the Internet so most likely your router has default route. When using router to connect to the Internet using DHCP this happens automatically so there will no need to configure default route manually. If you need to manually set default route then use the commands IP default-network or IP route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 .More info can be found at Cisco's site - see the related link below.
Where does the CMOS power come from when the computer is off?
The complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) power comes from the CMOS battery located on the motherboard. This battery powers the Basic Input Output System (BIOS) and stores the start-up config for the computer.
What is a default letter?
What is a Default Clearance Letter?
What happens when the CMOS battery starts to die out?
You will lose all custom settings in the BIOS, and the BIOS will revert to the basic default every time the computer is restarted.
The computer says the cmos checksum is incorrect please reload cmos default value how do you fix this?
you need to reset your cmos http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-Your-BIOS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pdp_L5IxaNI
How do you fix a computer that saysthe cmos checksum is incorrect please reload cmos default value?

CMOS checksum error Default loaded Warning CPU has been change Please re-enter CPU setting in the coms setup and remember to save before quit?
the main reason this happens is when the CMOS battery needs replacing.if the problem isn't resolved by doing this then I would flash the motherboard bios
What happens when your CMOS battery dies?
I think your new to the system if at all the cmos battery is gone when ever you start the system you can see the system that it directly goes to the bios setup and asks you config the system time,date, need to setup so because of this system will be waiting in that position . if not it will be asking you to press the "F1" or "ESC" key on your keyboard
What should you do if you get the POST error CMOS checksum bad?
cmos ram might be corrupt. run bios setup and reset bios to default settings. if it occurs again try, flashing bios.
What should you do if you lose the settings saved in cmos ram?
Nothing, the computer will run fine on the default settings usually.
What happens if you interchange pmos and nmos in a cmos inverter?
it becomes a buffer
If troubleshooting a boot problem what is the advantage of restoring all UEFIBIOS setting to their default values?
The main disadvantage to restoring all CMOS settings to default values is losing custom settings to optimize CMOS functions. The operating system may malfunction and perform improperly as well.
What happens to an organism if it homeostasis is disrupted and not restored?
the organism will not survive and will die as a result if it is not quickly restored
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".
