Which component on a computer stores permanent instructions which cannot be changed?

The ROM BIOS chip stores permanent instructions. ROM means read-only memory. BIOS means basic input/output system, meaning the very basic instructions needed to power up the computer. From there, the operating system loads.


What does ROM mean in computer term?

ROM means Read Only Memory. It contains data which should never be modified, such as BIOS.


How do prom and eprom differ from each other?

Ans. Read Only Memory (ROM):Another important part of main memory is Read Only Memory (ROM). Instructions can only be read from ROM. Instructions once written on ROM chip cannot be changed. It is a permanent or non-volatile memory of a computer, i.e. the contents of this type of memory are not lost when the computer is turned off. As soon as the computer is turned on, a program that resides in ROM automatically makes the computer ready for use. ROM is a semiconductor memory generally programmed by the manufacturer.Difference between PROM and EPROM:(Programmable Read Only Memory):It is a non-permanent memory of a computer. It is programmeable read only memory.EPROM (Erasable and programmable Read Only Memory):It is a non-permanent memory of a computer. It is programmeable and erase able read only memory.


What are the functions of the CPU components RAM ROM Arithmetic and Logic unit?

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is composed of several key components, each with distinct functions. RAM (Random Access Memory) serves as temporary storage for data and instructions that the CPU is currently processing, allowing for quick access and manipulation. ROM (Read-Only Memory) contains permanent instructions essential for booting the computer and performing basic functions, which cannot be modified during normal operation. The Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) performs all arithmetic calculations and logical operations, enabling the CPU to execute instructions and process data effectively.


What is 'read only'?

Read Only refers to a memory device which contains previously recorded data, which cannot be modified by the user.

What is an analogy for stain?

A stain is like a lingering memory that cannot be easily erased, similar to how a permanent marker leaves a mark on a surface.


Define Read Only memory?

Read Only Memory (ROM) is a type of non-volatile memory where data is permanently written during manufacturing and cannot be easily altered or deleted. ROM is commonly used to store firmware and essential software instructions that are needed to boot up a device or system.


ROM chip can it be modified?

No, it cannot be modified, removed, or rewritten by a computer user.


Is it possible to boot computer without memory?

No. First, the ROM BIOS is a type of memory. If the machine has no instructions to allow it to boot, it cannot do so. But often, the ROM needs to unpack its instructions somewhere else, and if there is no space for it to do that, it won't boot. Plus the POST tests will detect no memory, assume an error, and fail. Now, it would be possible to build a computer where everything is in ROM, but again, ROM is a type of memory.


Can a c51mcp51 motherboard support ddrii ram?

No it cannot It has an nvidia chipset 6150 That board is generally a winfast foxconn board or sometimes a biostar emachines modified version and as such is a 939 board ddr memory NOT ddr2 It will take up to a pc3200 (ddr400) memory
