CMOS is what kind of memory?

CMOS is a small component cluster on a computer motherboard which hold a very small amount of simple information. It has a large button battery which supplies the needed power to preform one of its main functions: Keep date and time. It also holds vital system settings.

Basicly, It is a small memory componant, but users can not store data on it aside from system boot settings.

Can a motherboard accept 2 different RAM speed?

Yes, you can use different speed DDR2 RAM, but the faster one will be clocked down to the speed of the slowest one, so your not taking any advantage from the faster speed of one of those...however, this mix can probably cause instability (not in all cases), so if you can, get the RAM at the same speed :)

How is information maintained in memory?

if you are talking about ram then all information get lost when you turn off computer. in case of rom, the information is permanent until we erase it forcefully..

What is the maximum amount of memory the banks on your motherboard can accommodate motherboard 210882?

It depends on the motherboard. If you can find out what type of motherboard you have, you can look up what type of memory and how much of it you can install into the memory banks. Keep in mind that the operating system that you have may limit how much of the installed memory you can actually use.

When installing RAM modules what are the precautions that you should follow to protect against damage caused by static electricity?

The most important thing to do is to ground yourself before handling the RAM. To do this touch a metal part of your computer. This will ground you. Alternatively you could wear an anti-static wrist band which keeps you grounded at all times.

Sdram or edo which would result in better performance?

If you had to choose one then you would chooes SDRAM. it is faster than EDO

Disadvantages for using DRAM for the main memory?

Disadvantages of DRAM

Dram having have access time compared to SRAM.

It needs extra circuit to refresh the cell which refreshes the Dram thousand times per second. So it requires more power.

What is bigger a terabyte or a megabyte?

English obviously isn't your first language. If you mean "Which is more, a megabyte or a terrabyte?" then the answer is a terrabyte. There are 1024 Bytes in a Kilobyte, 1024 Kilobytes in a Megabyte, 1024 Megabytes in a Gigabyte, and 1024 Gigabytes in a Terrabyte.

Why would you have problems with a system in which you installed three known good RIMMs?

All RIMM slots must be filled either with RIMM modules or CRIMM modules.

"23. Fill 'er up. Leaving a memory slot empty is not a problem as long as you install DIMMs. If you install RIMMs in your system, however, then you need to make sure every slot is full. No, you don't have to buy more of the pricey Rambus memory modules; simply use a pair of CRIMMs (continuity RIMMs), as they're called, to plug the empty memory slots on the motherboard. You can buy CRIMMs for $10 to $15 each from computer retailers. Failing to fill empty Rambus memory slots with CRIMMs will result in a computer that doesn't boot."

What kind of memory items are stored on the motherboard?

A motherboard nomally has slots for the addition or replacement of RAM modules. The particular type depends on the type of board. The manufacturer website or a memory manufacturer website can help you find out.

If you want to find this out without opening the case on desktop or laptop go to the crucial memory website and download the scanner tool. The Crucial System Scanner automatically analyzes your computer memory information and suggests an upgrade that's guaranteed compatible.

Which of the memory has shortest access time?

The processor registers! Relatively, they are very small (a register on an Intel 32-bit processor is only 4 bytes large!) but they are very fast. Programs use them to store the part of data they are working on and some memory addresses.

How many bytes for a page of words?

A cell phone text message is 140 or 160 bytes based on service provider.

As for a text page. A single letter is 1 byte. So it depends on paper size etc.

What is maximum frequency of DDR3 ram?

Depends on processor-:

for intel i3 processors, highest frequency is 1333mhz

for intel i5 processors, highest frequency is 1333mhz,(supports 1066mhz too)

for intel i7 processors-:

for i7-8xx & i7-2xxx series-highest frequency is 1333mhz

for i7-9xx series-highest frequency is 1066mhz.

What measures a computer memory?

Byte is the term for one unit of computer memory. A thousand bytes is a kilobyte (KB). A thousand kilobytes is a gigabyte (GB). A thousand gigabytes is a tetrabyte (TB). Currently that is one of the largest units ever needed.

What is the computers internal memory?

What do you mean? The memory stored on a computer is on the hard drive, or maybe you mean the "virtual" memory... the memory that is stored up on the process that is running on your computer currently, that's stored on the ram.
