During a routine inventory, you located an old computer that hasn't been utilized in quite a long time. During testing, you discover that the CMOS battery is dead. Which of the following is an indicator of this?
The CMOS battery allows the system to retain its BIOS/UEFI settings, such as the system date and time, when no main power is connected. If the computer is unplugged and the CMOS battery is dead, all BIOS/UEFI settings will be lost, resulting in an inaccurate system date/time upon the next startup.
