CMOSSave CMOSRest CMOSChk 1.4 restore damaged CMOS from backup
and check that CMOS has not been tampered with.
Naive users sometimes meddle with CMOS settings. We need a fast
way to put the scores of subtle CMOS configuration settings back
the way they were.
Power surges can corrupt CMOS. We need a way for a naive user
to quickly restore all the CMOS settings.
If the battery fails, the contents will be lost. We need a way
to restore a known working CMOS configuration.
CMOSRest restores ALL of CMOS, including the proprietary
extended COMS settings like wait states, clock speeds, shadow
RAM etc.
Version 1.2 works on AMI 64-byte SX CMOSes as well as the
standard 128-byte ones. Version 1.3 also restores CMOSes on
machines that don't properly clear the status bytes on boot up.
Version 1.4 works on BIOSes that don't always set the CMOS
register C status flags consistently.
