Maybe the CMOS battery is exhausted and needs replacing.

Yep... If the cmos settings don't held...that's the first thing to suspect.
If you open the case of the machine it should be easy to spot.
Cheap and easy to replace

Why did you post your question in a Windows-98 newsgroup?

Most likely because the bios found both to be in error.
What would you suspect?

An actual war, we can do what's been done in the past.

I read that the battery only maintains the time. Therefore when the battery
dies, shouldn't only the time be affected?

You read wrong. Or what you read was wrong. Just as its name suggests, the
CMOS battery keeps alive the CMOS, which is a special memory chip that holds
your BIOS settings.

The 'clock chip' is where the CMOS lives. The first few registers in the
clock
chip contain the time, the rest contain what people commonly refer to as the
CMOS. Originally it was a separate part, a 146818 chip, but now it's part
of much more complicated members of the 'chipset' for laptops.

It has it's own battery so that the user can swap out the main battery and
the
system still remembers everything.

I use a desktop, not a notebook computer. If I remove the battery that is on
the motherboard, will the bios settings be lost?
