the freshly installed windows xp sytem is not saving the settings that i make...like i changed the resolution from 800x600 to 1024x768 and then changed the ip address of lan card. After restarting the system the settings are reversed. Im not gettinh the confs that i've changed.

i removed the cmos battery from the system since it used to give cmos error...could it be the problem?
