mudmanc4 Posted August 30, 2008 CID Share Posted August 30, 2008 Could the computer be a bit older, and the battery maybe dead ? Are you saving "F10" ? Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/23505-cmos-settings/#findComment-280842 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to find the exact one that the machine takes. It might not be the battery, but thats the first thing that comes to mind. cmos batteries Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/23505-cmos-settings/#findComment-280847 Share on other sites More sharing options...
