• Problems with the date and time - have to reset the date & time on reboot

  original title: problems with the date and time

  Whenever I turn on my computer (Windows XP 2002) I click on F2.  Then I re - set the date and time it occurred in January 2006 1 h every time I have turn off the computer.  Can someone tell me what I need to do?

  You need to replace the battery in time clock (RTC) real of your computer.  It can also be called the CMOS or BIOS battery.

  Many computers, this battery is an inexpensive CR2032 button available in almost every pharmacy corner.  There are, however, some computers (especially laptops) that require a different (and probably more expensive) battery.

  Whatever the expense, almost all of these batteries are easy to replace.

  To get help, post back with the brand and model of your computer.

• Date and time shows the process of judgment up to the date and time

• Date and time system continues to change each time the system starts.

  I noticed that the time and date of my home PC gets changed every time the system is booted. The default date is set for Jan. 2008, when in fact it should be July 2014.

  Also, my PC became slow death. I use Windows 7 on 1 GB of RAM, 250 GB PC. I used last my home PC 2 years back, but there has always been someone to use it.

  It shows the OS disk to 7 GB of free, when in fact I never installed or anything unnecessary stored on the disk of BONE; Whatever unnecessary programs were there, I uninstalled them recently, keeping just a few essential ones. After uninstalling, it shows to 7 GB of free, when in fact it should be more than that.

  I use Avast anti-virus, which I think is unnecessary, that its not to protect my PC and as other programs, too, is quite dead slow.

  The system is infected by viruses? Manually, I checked the system for viruses and clean the system of all unnecessary and, program files, but I'm still not sure whether it is a virus or a PC problem.

  I am a COMPUTER analyst, and's just done it 2 days that I use my PC at home. I could format my PC, or where applicable be buy Windows 8 with a new processor.

  Please advise.

  Thank you and best regards,

  Ralph Davidson.

  Hello

  You really need a minimum of at least 2GBs of RAM to run Windows 7 well enough.

  As you have only 1 GB of RAM, which seems to be one of the reasons why it is slow.

  Increase the physical RAM or try ReadyBoost:

  Looks like you have some problems.

• Application of F1 / reset the date and time

  OK could not hang out long so here my problem feel free to move it if you must.

  Hi everyone I'm new here and I'm looking for the answer to what should be a simple question, but I can't find the answer, anywhere, not even after much research on the internet.

  My problem.  I woke up in a constant demand press F1 at the start and I had to constantly reset the date and time. A friend told me that he knew the solution and he replaced the battery Cmos and during one period of time applications of F1 and the need to reset the date and time on start arrested. Then, after a few weeks the F1 ask on startup and delivery to reset the date and time again.

  The situation at the present time, is that I replaced battery comos with the same type and the F1 started queries rearrested again. But once again after a few weeks the demand of the f1 and the need to reset the date and the tooth is distributed.

  I wonder if my friend used the bad battery when he replaced everything first, can someone out there please tell me the correct Cmos battery number and size, I need to motherboard below.

  Acer Apaire E380-CB7L mother board HT 2000 MCP6PM - Re3v:1.0 AM A what is battery correct Cmos?

  I found my answer in a response to another thread. It seems that some how the bad battery had been mounted and in my ignorance of this I still once mounted battery hurt it then compounded the problem further.

  It seems that the CMOS battery on the motherboard usually is a CR 2032 3V , I now nested together for my MB. I'll let you know if it works.

  BTW thanks to the person who advises I took on it.

• Evrytime I connect me, I have to reset my date and time, why?

  Why my date and time do not be saved? Why should I reset each time my date and time?

  Hi NarendraNP.

  Here are three possibilities about why this is happening to you.
  1. The time in the BIOS is not set correctly. Therefore, every time that you start the PC the incorrect time is displayed. To correct, shut down the computer, turn it on and immediately go into the BIOS settings. Check that the date and time is defined, save and exit, then start the computer normally.
  2. The CMOS battery is dead and needs to be replaced. To fix, you have to expose the motherboard and replace the small type CR2032 on motherboard. You can find many videos on YouTube that will show you how to replace a motherboard CMOS battery.
  3. You don't have administrator rights to the computer to change the date and time, or there is a program installed on the computer that locks the system setting changes (an example of a program that does this is Faronics DeepFreeze). The only solution for this is to temporarily disable the program that is to lock the Control Panel, or ask a system administrator set the date and time for you.

  One of these explanations\fixes help it?

• Need to reset the date and time

  My system has decided that it is Jan.4th 2004 and everytime I turn it on, I need to reset the date and time. How can I cure this?

  Packard Bell's Web site does not recognize the 'ALT' CO2 as a model.  Despite this, however, PB seems only to provide a 'generic user guide"which is not described the replacement of the motherboard or the battery at all.  In fact, the only thing he has to say about batteries is be careful how get rid you of them.

  Your computer is a laptop or Desktop/Tower computer?

  If you have a desktop/Tower computer, you can look here--> http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/pb/mb/pbmb.htm and see if you can identify the motherboard used in your computer.

  However, if you have a desktop/Tower computer, the best thing to do is to unplug your computer from the network and, taking the precautions perfectly static electricity, open the box and inspect the motherboard yourself.

  A newish mother on the above site, http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/pb/mb/cosmos.htm, shows the battery on the center line vertical and more to the left.  It's just below the 3 PCI slots.  If you have something like that, a Visual inspection should be enough to see how to remove it.  The type of battery will be engraved on the top of the battery.  In the photo, it looks like a model CR-2032, but there are several models of battery on this size.  Battery CR-2032 (or equivalent) is available in almost every pharmacy chain in the United States as well as online and stores like Radio Shack.

  The page for an old motherboard, http://www.uktsupport.co.uk/pb/mb/450.htm, indicates that the battery is a '3.0V DC Lithium soldered to the motherboard"and if that were the case, it would probably be something that you wouldn't do yourself.  However, this thread is to think that all you have to do for this particular mobo is actually finding the right type of support plug-and - battery.

  If you have a laptop, things can get quite a bit more difficult.  If you can find a different model for your computer name, you may be able to find the manual here--> http://tim.id.au/laptops/packardbell/ , but some of these manuals can not explain clearly how to get to the CMOS battery.

• My date and time settings are set in Egypt and whenever updates of the laptop with microsoft server time, it increases of 1 h.

  My date and time settings are set in Egypt and whenever updates of the laptop with microsoft server time, it increases of 1 h.
  Recently in Egypt, changes of daylight has been cancelled and I guess that's the cause of the problem!
  Any ideas?

  If time was recently cancelled, you can go to your control panel:
  Panel-> data and time-zone (tab) >
  and uncheck the "automatically adjust clock for daylight saving time.

  Otherwise, you probably need to adjust your zone settings on your computer using Microsoft time zone Editor.

• Date and the resets each time I switch off the PC (usually back to November or December 2001).

  Here's what I've tried:

  -Replace the battery in the motherboard (twice)
  -Updated BIOS
  -Retstored system to a previous date
  -Reset the date and time of dozens of times by using the control panel and system control

  What the hell is happening?  Computer works fine except the this?

  Given that the problem occurs when you shut down the computer, you know it's a motherboard problem and not a software problem (Windows). Since you have already replaced the battery CMOS and flashed your BIOS, there is nothing more, that you can do. Your motherboard is probably at its output. If it is an old computer or out of warranty, it will not be worth it to replace the motherboard. I recommend to keep your backup data regularly and either live with it or replace the machine.
