Time/date problems… [SOLVED]
July 25th, 2016
This is one of the weirdest problems i had on my pc and that is.. the last period the time and date is wrong while it’s set to automatic!! I didn’t changed anyting!!
I’ve changed it a few times by myself but now it’s again wrong and it is setted to automatic so what can be the problem and how can i solve this?
The time zone is correct too!!
Very annoying!
your cmos battery is probably dead, change it and see if you still have the problem.
get a new CMOS battery
Guys i really don’t know what a “cmos” battery is but i’ve already solved it.
Here’s a printscreen of the setting i’ve changed! Normally till now the first one was selected with the red arrow.. now i selected the second one with the green arrow and updated it with the button on the right and now it is fixed!
Here’s a printscreen:
What is a “cmos” battery?

If you loose time after PC has been turned off and unplugged
Then change the battery as shown in above link!
Guys i appreciate your willing to help but why do i need to change the battery if it’s already fixed with the way i showed in the printscreen?? I just changed from the server where i was connected with for the time/date.
Btw: what is the official shortcut term for “printscreen”??
“PrtScr” is what’s written on my keyboard..
Good you got it done..Yes sometimes those time servers don’t work and you need to change..
We were just pointing out that with a flat battery all can be OK even when putting PC into standby but could loose clock and also CMOS settings when power is removed altogether.
