How do I clear the CMOS and ECU settings?



Hardware
All AcerFrame and Acer Altos Systems.

Problem
How do I clear the CMOS and ECU settings?

Solution
Boot up MS-DOS and enter the DEBUG program. Type the following commands:

The following commands will clear CMOS:

		-o 70 2e <CR>
		-o 71 ff <CR>
		-o 70 2f <CR>
		-o 71 ff <CR>

The following commands will clear EISA NVRAM:

		-o 800 ff <CR>
		-o 808 ff <CR>
		-o 810 ff <CR>
		-o 880 ff <CR>

This will reset the system and require that the CMOS Setup and ECU be run. It may be necessary to reboot the computer a couple of times to correct any CMOS and ECU errors.
