A multimeter can do that. Another thing you can do is completely unplug the computer for about a few minutes and then power up again ... if the CMOS is still intact then you're ok.how to I "check" it?
Sometimes defaults arent so great, what are the exact values?i've been trying to figure this out for a while about what is good and bad...but everything is defaulted and I made sure of that...any good sites or anything?
