This is actually a very helpful video man! Not kidding! The explanations are quite clear, I haven't found a clear explanation of that area of the PC on all my 7 years involved in IT!
Most CMOS now are not really CMOS at all anymore. They are typically FLASH EEPROM chips in modern computers that store most of the settings like boot sequence, RAM timings, and passwords like the gentleman above mentioned didn't clear when he removed the battery. The main function of these batteries seems to be to keep the date and time.
HEY LISTEN NOW I TRIED TO UPDATE MY BIOS AND HAS BEEN FAILED I HAVE MOTHERBOARD ASROCK G41C-S CHECK IT PLS AND CPU Q8400 AND I HAVE PROBLEM AFTER UPDATING I TRIED TO LOGG ON MY COMPUTER AND THE MONITOR SHOWS ME AN BLACK SCREEN WHAT I CAN TO DO ??? PLEASE HELP!!! IS TOO MUCH IMPORTANT!! I LOST MY JOB AND I MUST TO FIX TO GET AGAIN BACK TO THE JOB SO PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU CAN BUT I HOPE YOU CAN HEELLPP!!!
Thanks for the info on changing the CMO’s battery. Before starting the task, I viewed parts 1-3 of your tutorials & everything went smoothly...very helpful info on BIOS & CMOS.
For the first time in 3 years, my HP desktop computer now reflects the correct date & time…
How does the jumper work? For newer model computers, removing CMOS wont work for some reason and I hear of the jumper method. How does the computer store the password for bios without any battery??
I have an HP desktop and it is getting stuck on the "HP Invent" blue screen when I start it up. The only thing that seems to work is removing the CMOS battery, waiting a minute or so, and reinstalling the battery; then the computer will boot up (go passed the "HP Invent" screen. Does anyone know what is causing this problem? I replaced the battery with a new one and that didn't fix things.
hi i have shorted 2 or 3 pins on the cmos site(eprom) to clear password.but now nothing happen---no lights--no power on laptop..no reboot...but powersupply is ok....what can i do to run the laptop D610??If you can help me pls tell me.many thanks david sunfly@gmx.net
In early to mid-2011 computer manufacturers might be selling computers minus BIOS thank god which means that computers should start up a whole lot faster.

WHAT IS the CMOS? I hear it all the time on motherboard reviews like.. "You can efficiently reset your CMOS on the back of the motherboard" Like... WTF?! I've never used this, never heard of it so why'd I need it now?
Clearing your CMOS mean to reset everything in your BIOS to default. When an overclock session goes horribly wrong and your computer no longer boots there has to be a way to reverse your overclock back to default so you can boot your PC. This is where "clearing your CMOS" comes into play and it's whole purpose.
@Scott97169 This comment helped me greatly.... my friend overclocked (to play games) and it didn't go too well for him.... I will tell him to use the reset jumper and clear CMOS. =D
@Serpico261 no its complementary metal oxide semiconductor ,and when you open bios and create your own settings including bios password all of your bios settings will be saved on cmos and when you forgot your bios password you can reset your bios default settings by removing and reinserting cmos battery on your motherboard..have a nice day:)
hi there, yeah i know. i just referred to the conclusion what someone posted
"CMOS = BIOS settings". actually its true, for the bios setting on modern computers, but i was actually saying that CMOS is a semiconductor technolgy type in the first place, so he does not mix up these words
yeah great thanks its just it ws the first ime i built a computer and i wasen't sure wh that was happening i thought there was something wrong with the mother board (i was going to send it back till i saw this vid
exscuse my ignorance but my pc shows a checksum error defaults loaded then cmos battery failure.. i think i should be able to sollve checksum error but i would like to know is if i can put any cmos battery into my pc or has it got the same. I have t 2 pcs an 2 batterys but there different types. p.s. the fail battery is same as your 1st part of your video (kts) any info would be great
hello erm i enabled a password on bios about 1 yr ago n now i forgot it i want to format my pc and i still need 2 write the password when i wanna format it so how can i remove the pass? i tried removing the batiry but it didnt work:( pls help!!
