you really should not make blanket statements
99% of store bought pcs would have one hard drive and be configured to defaults meaning even if the cmos is reset the system will just boot up normally only systems configured with OS hard drive on higher positioned sata connection with a different drive gaining priority would not boot and this is only if the OS drive was set to first boot in priority when the OS is installed if not then system files would have written to the spare drive and the system would boot
All of this is irrelevent in this thread anyway as a firmware update of a TV should not lose the user settings and if the Tivo box does ( which I accept is suspect) then its a bug isnt it
