I've had it happen to me once too. In my case, the BIOS just went back |
| 34 |
to default settings. The only real change was the loss of the clock |
| 35 |
setting but it didn't complain, it just booted. After I replaced the |
| 36 |
battery, I went back and changed my settings to what I remembered them |
| 37 |
being. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Since then, I change that battery every few years, while the system is |
| 40 |
running so that I don't lose any settings at all. ;-) Be careful. |
