cannot save my cisco running config to memory/startup config
Every time I power up my cisco 1721 router it goes into the system config dialog and prompts to enter the initial configuration dialog.
I try to copy running-conf startup-conf and it succeeds. I can then show startup-config and it shows the settings that I've configured. However I then reload the router and it's lost the settings.
Why is this?

Your configuration register may not be set correctly and the router may be ignoring the configuration in NVRAM (startup-configuration). Can you post a "show version" to verify.

Yeah I had the same thing happen to me
And it is because of the config register, but the above command did not work for me.
I used:
config-register 0x2102
and it worked
