SUMMARY
=======
Some Intel machines require a BIOS update if the CTRL+ALT+DEL key combination
causes the CMOS settings to be erased when EMM386.EXE is loaded. This problem
only occurs with HIMEM.SYS version 3.07 and EMM386.EXE version 4.44, which
shipped with the Microsoft Windows operating system version 3.1.
According to Intel, this is a known BIOS problem and can be fixed with a BIOS
update.
