    BIOS SETUP CHAPTER 3 BIOS SETUP 3.1 BIOS Setup Award BIOS has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify the basic system configuration. This information is stored in CMOS RAM. So it can retain the Setup information when the power is turned off. When the battery of CMOS fails, it will cause the data to be lost. When that happens, you should set up your configuration parameters again after replacing the battery.
