4.2 Standard CMOS Setup
"Standard CMOS Setup" records some basic system hardware information
and sets the system clock and handling. If your mainboard is already
installed in working system you will not need to do this. If the configuration
record that is stored in the CMOS memory on the board is lost or corrupted,
or if you change your system hardware configuration, you will need to
recreate the record. The configuration record can be lost or corrupted if the
on-board battery that maintains it weakens or fails.
