Just wondering... If I clear my CMOS settings, will it revert the BIOS back to its original version. I've recently updated it so that I could unlock all 4 cores on my cpu. I don't wanna clear it and have that go away lolz.

If you clear your bios it will go back to default settings.It wont go back to your old bios if you updated the bios to a newer version.Like if your bios is version 1.2 and you updated to 1.3.Clearing the cmos wont set you back to 1.2.So dont worry about that

I love those "yes/no" questions.
