Where is the saved BIOS configuration data stored?
All the settings from the BIOS are stored in a chip which is located on the motherboard. That chip is called EEPROM (electrically erasable PROM).BIOS configuration setting is store in special memory called CMOS. Which is little powered by a battery. RAM is volatile so when computer turned off, all data lost.This can also happen with CMOS but due to this purpose it is powered by battery. It consumption of power is very low and it can store data for 1 year.CMOS stand for "Complementary Metal Oxides Semiconductor".
Where is the saved BIOS configuration data saved?
BIOS configuration data is available in several different forms. This data is actively stored on the motherboard of each individual personal computer.
The basic data and instructions used to start the computer are called?
It's a mixture of things. BIOS, CMOS, Operating system.
What is pcsx2 bios?
BIOS stands for basic input-ouput-system and it is how the machine reads and parses data
What is the special memory chip called where the BIOS configuration data is stored?
EEPROM (Electrically erasable programmable read-only memor)
Can the BIOS store data permanently?
The BIOS saves data on a CMOS chip that is still volatile like other memory, but it is typically powered by a CR2032 button battery. If this battery fully discharges or is removed, the data stored in CMOS is lost and the BIOS settings will automatically be reset to default.
The system BIOS is stored on nonvolatile memory called what?
Bios rom
The process of upgrading or refreshing the ROM bios chip is called ROM?
The process of upgrading or refreshing the ROM BIOS chip is called flashing BIOS. The power menu in BIOS setup allows you to configure automatic power saving features.
What is the bios set up program called?
there is no bios setup program but BIOS stands for basic input output system
How do you change the data in the cmos?
Data stored in CMOS can be altered using a CMOS editor program. CMOS commonly stores the computer's BIOS and its content can be changed using the inbuilt BIOS settings utility.
A bios that can be reprogrammed using software is called?
BIOS stands for Basic Input/output System. It is software that is built into computers. A BIOS that can be reprogrammed using software is called EPROM.
What is the purpose of the memory technology called SPD?
Serial Presence Detect: modules communicate their capacity and features to BIOS at start up.
