Why?

[Guest b11_]

During Bootup, the message below appeared:

 

105: CMOS Settings are Wrong

107: CMOS Display Type is Wrong

 

Press F1 to run Setup

Press F2 to Load Default Values and Continue

 

Why did the above message appear?

Re: Why?

 

Maybe the CMOS battery is exhausted and needs replacing.

Yep... If the cmos settings don't held...that's the first thing to suspect.

If you open the case of the machine it should be easy to spot.

Cheap and easy to replace

Why did you post your question in a Windows-98 newsgroup?

Most likely because the bios found both to be in error.

What would you suspect?

Re: Why?

 

I read that the battery only maintains the time. Therefore when the battery

dies, shouldn't only the time be affected?

Re: Why?

 

You read wrong. Or what you read was wrong. Just as its name suggests, the

CMOS battery keeps alive the CMOS, which is a special memory chip that holds

your BIOS settings.

Re: Why?

 

The 'clock chip' is where the CMOS lives. The first few registers in the

clock

chip contain the time, the rest contain what people commonly refer to as the

CMOS. Originally it was a separate part, a 146818 chip, but now it's part

of much more complicated members of the 'chipset' for laptops.

 

It has it's own battery so that the user can swap out the main battery and

the

system still remembers everything.

Re: Why?

 

I use a desktop, not a notebook computer. If I remove the battery that is on

the motherboard, will the bios settings be lost?
