RAM is volatile so when computer turned off, all data lost.This can also happen with CMOS but due to this purpose it is powered by battery. It consumption of power is very low and it can store data for 1 year.CMOS stand for "Complementary Metal Oxides Semiconductor".
What should be done if BIOS settings are set to default whenever you boot your system?
The reason that causes your BIOS to reset to its defaults is a dead battery. Because CMOS (BIOS settings) is a volatile form of memory, the memory chip needs a constant power source, even when the computer is off. To supply this, there is a coin battery located directly on the motherboard. Simply replace this with the exact same kind and you shouldn't have any more problems.
