    Time and date resets when i restart the pc?


    Whenever i turn my windows7 pc on, it tells me to set the time and date settings. After a google search it's mostly likely my CMOS battery is dead, so i bought one off ebay and installed it but i'm still having the same time and date errors...

    Can anybody help?

    Did you go into Bios setup during Boot-up, and set the date & time for your time zone, there first. Then when in Windows set it to the same date & time as the Bios setting.

    You don't get to pick a time zone in the Bios settings, I just said to set the time & date for the zone you are presently in.

    Is this a desktop or laptop computer ? Did you get the new battery installed properly ?

    Are you getting this message during Boot-up, before Windows starts ?
