### Virtual CMOS Device Drivers

The virtual CMOS device driver consists of virtual support for the CMOS battery backed-up RAM, the Real-Time Clock (RTC) and the Nonmaskable Interrupt (NMI) disable logic. It provides virtual access to the address and data latches through virtual I/O ports. This component allows the majority of existing DOS applications that access its ports by direct access, or by normal BIOS calls, to operate without change.
