The CMOS map is subject to change without notice. 3.4 CMOS Default Override The BIOS detects the state of the CMOS default switch. If the switch is set to "CMOS Clear" prior to power-on or a hard reset, the BIOS changes the CMOS and NVRAM settings to a default state. This guarantees the system's ability to boot from floppy. Password settings are not affected by CMOS clear. The BIOS clears the ESCD parameter block and loads a null ESCD image. The boot order information is also cleared when CMOS is cleared via jumper. If the Reset Configuration Data option is enabled in Setup, ESCD data and BIOS Boot specification data is cleared and reinitialized in next boot. 32 Revision 1.0
