Flash doesnt keep config

[princecharm]

Hi guys..
I have a cisco 1005 router. I config it and save the config by
wr mem
or
copy running-config startup-config

but when i reboot the router. The configuration is lost...
And i need to reconfigure it...
So can anyone please tell me why it doesnt keep the config.
Thanks anyway...

Hi

you should check your configuration register setting.
Check output of SH VERSION (the very last line).

Set the register to 0x2102, this will do it. regards,
