Changing

special

type

of

memory

that

maintains

the

date,

time,

and

settings

for

built-in

features,

such

as

parallel-port

assignments

(configuration).

A

battery

keeps

this

information

active

when

you

turn

off

the

computer.

battery

normally

requires

no

charging

or

maintenance

throughout

its

life;

however,

no

battery

lasts

forever.

the

battery

fails,

the

date,

time,

information

(including

passwords)

are

lost.

An

error

message

is

displayed

when

you

turn

on

the

computer.

to

“Lithium

battery

notice”

on

page

xii

for

and

of

the
