Answer:

(c) The CMOS battery is bad and needs to be replaced.

Explanation:

In a computer or laptop the CMOS (Complementary metal oxide semiconductor) battery contains small amount of memory space and stores the hardware configuration settings (such as BIOS data and clock/time settings) of the laptop/computer. So if the CMOS battery goes bad, the following are some of the problems that will be encountered on the system;

i. The date and time of the computer will be incorrect.

ii. System may display error messages such as "CMOS checksum error".

iii. The system may turn off and not start because the configuration settings used for starting up the system are not found.

Therefore, to fix this problem, changing or replacing the battery is a way out.
