Re: CMOS checksum error, BIOS Setup hangs, Unable to boot from disks Flying_Kiwi Oct 22, 2011 2:52 PM (in response to pingpong) The CMOS checksum error is commonly associated with failure of the coin cell battery on the motherboard. Given the systems age, this is also a possible reason for your problem (although usually batteries last a bit longer than 3 years - perhaps 5). You're best bet is downloading your motherboard manual from the board makers website (or possibly even on the CDROM that came with the motherboard) and following the instructions in there, change the battery for one of the correct type. When you reboot, you'll have to go into the BIOS setup again and load default values and save out of there. As it's not an Intel branded board, if you're still having issues with it after checking this, you're better off posting in the board manufacturers forums or emailing their tech support people. Good luck with the new battery! Like Show 0 Likes(0) Actions

Go download/find the manual for your motherboard and you are looking for something called CMOS reset. It usually involves moving a jumper on the motherboard. –Scott Chamberlain Oct 15 '12 at 7:49 Little bit confused before updating the BIOS. Can you please help me. detailed system info : MainBoard -> Gigabyte 945GZM-S2 , Chipset -> Intel i945G/GZ , Processor -> Intel Core 2 Duo E4400 @ 2000 MHz , BIOS Version ->FC HI, BIOS Date ->04/24/2007(mm/dd/yyyy) . While downloading the BIOS update there are 3 revisions and each revision contains multiple BIOS revisions. I can find the FC version in rev 2.1 and its release date is 01/12/2007(mm/dd/yyyy). it is less than my bios date. Which one I have to download? gigaby

They include: 1. CMOS Battery may not be functioning properly. The battery life may have expired. (it's probably this) 2. cmos checksum error The user or a virus may have updated the BIOS. 3.

Reports: · Posted 4 years ago Top semiretired Posts: 1214 This post has been reported. Cmos equals continuous metal oxide semiconductor. It is the small disk battery found on your motherboard. It is usually a cr2032 that can be purchased at a walmart......etc. In a laptop, it could be sheathed in a holder of some type and be more expensive.
