Re: save cmos settings

There isn't any efficient software for saving the CMOS settings (e.g. if you do find it, it may well be filled with malware), so I suggest taking a picture of each BIOS screen, print it out or save it on the memory card :)

There used to be a particular aflash download from Asus, that
included aflash.exe, clrcmos.exe , and cmos.exe. They ran in
pure DOS mode (boot MSDOS with a floppy). But I don't know if it works for now..

What do these files do?

CMOS.EXE saves the BIOS setup settings to a file. This is
necessary since in newer AWARD BIOSes you can't use "print screen"
to print out your settings.
Here are the commands:
CMOS /L filename " for example " CMOS /L settings.txt

But that's from ASUS..I don't think it will work for other mobos

You can save your motherboard CMOS with the same software used for Flash. Look for it on the website of your motherboard manufacturer.

There are some app's to do it. But the most important thing we must remember is don't do it if not necessary, because it is very delicate action.
If you don't have experience your computer can go to the dush.
Read all than you can find about it, and then do it if you are safety.
Regards and be careful.

In Spain by law, two years after purchase, but there are many other countries with only 1 year warranty or less.
So I insist, don't do it if you don't know how it works.
