INF File
The INF file contains detailed information about a
configuration such as switch and jumper settings, software
statements, connection statements, and resource allocation.
The INF file is used by the “Display/Print” command to recall
information on a saved configuration. Each INF file should
have a corresponding CMS file.
Extended CMOS Memory
Extended CMOS memory is a small amount of very lower
power memory on the system board. Configuration information
is stored in extended CMOS so that the BIOS can initialize
the system (including adapter cards) at power up. The contents
of CMOS memory is maintained by a battery. If the battery
runs down, the contents of CMOS memory may be lost. It is
then necessary to either reconfigure the system or copy a
backed up configuration into extended CMOS memory.
