A computer platform setup configuration data backup handling method and system is proposed, which is designed for use in conjunction with a computer platform for providing the computer platform with a configuration data memory backup handling function, and which is characterized by the capability of making a backup copy of the setup configuration data stored in CMOS RAM (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, Random-Access Memory), such that in the event of a failure to the CMOS RAM, the backup copy of setup configuration data can be retrieved for initialization of the computer platform at startup. This feature allows the computer platform to be notwithstanding able to start up in the event of a failure to the CMOS RAM, thus allowing the computer platform having faulted CMOS RAM to be nevertheless operable to provide intended services without requiring the end user to ask for help from the manufacturer.
