I have this problem with my pc,I did a virus scan even,didnt get anything.
Thing is each time I start up my startup settings been changed,it gives an error like cmos battery low, press f1 to change,or f2 to lead default settings. Than with f1 i have to fix startup and than only it start. Each time the date and time of the pc is changed.
what is wrong:help:
is this a windows problem or bios problem?

It seems ur PC battery is running low thats all i can think of
ull need to replace the batter inside
not too difficult to do
open up ur pc...Somewhere on the motherboard u will see a small slot which has a small round lithium battery in it..u basicallyt need to take it out and replace it with a new one
seems daunting i guess..but its just as same as replacing a battery on your watch :)
