does anyone know if there exists a CMOS backup&restore utility ?

(I got an ASUS p4c800-e Deluxe motherboard)

Are you talking about saving the CMOS settings or a utility to backup/restore the bin or ROM file itself?

no about the cmos-settings (the 128 bytes of data stored by the bios-rom program)

If you only want to save the 128 bytes:
http://www.filelibrary.com/Contents/DOS/54/18.html
has loads of them.
If you want to save the Extended CMOS as well, do a Google search for "Extended CMOS" save program

UniFlash can restore the CMOS settings that you saved as well??

There is Clear/Save/Restore. Should work with CMOS size of up to 256B. but it's not tested extensively.
