Rebonsoir à tous,
Voici mon troisuème et dernier post sur le sujet parce que j'ai l'impression que là, çà ressemble à du crack !

Clear CMOS RAM
The first method to clear the CMOS RAM is to remove the battery on the mainboard. The battery should be removed for some 30 to 40 minutes. In the worst case you will have to desolder the battery.
If the battery is a NiCad type battery, there is no need to remove the battery. Instead, you can connect a 39 Ohm resister in parallel over the battery. Leave the resistor connected for about half an hour. Do not use this method on Lithium batteries, because these are non-rechargeable, and have to be removed from the mainboard leaving the charge intact.
The third method is to use the CMOS Selector, a 2- or 3-pin jumper on the mainboard. Consult your mainboard manual on the correct jumpersetting to clear the CMOS. If your system is provided with a MR BIOS, the CMOS Selector is not needed and the Mono/Color Selector on the mainboard can be used for this purpose. The Mono setting of the jumper is used as a master-override.
The above methods should be used when you have no access to the system. If you still have access to the system but can't access BIOS Setup, you can use software to clear the CMOS, such as:
lost.com
killcmos.zip [9 kB],
also available k-cmos32.zip a Win95/NT shell for the DOS version [39 kB],
and k-cmos32i.zip an installable Win95/NT version [1031 kB]
loesch.zip from C'T Magazin
However, you don't have to clear all of CMOS RAM. You can use DEBUG to clear a byte in CMOS RAM. In the following example, the byte at offset 2Eh in CMOS RAM is cleared:
debug[Enter]
-o 70,2E[Enter]
-o 71,0[Enter]
-q[Enter]
Although you can use DEBUG to clear a random byte in CMOS RAM, you should check out the CMOS RAM contents to see if that byte isn't already cleared. You can do this with the program cmos.exe. Also, you should use one of the bytes, for which a checksum is calculated and stored in CMOS RAM, e.i. one of the bytes from 10h thru 3Fh. So, your choice of a byte isn't completely random! Reboot the system and BIOS will find that the calculated checksum doesn't match the stored checksum and you will be forced into Setup.
