    Please help (Mobo)

    I replaced a Battery on a motherboard this week as the time and date kept going back. I reset it all in the Bios as per norm. Thing is, it still keeps happening? The pc is running great. What could be causing this please?

    I'm no expert, but could it be a problem with the CMOS reset switch on the mobo?

    Are you sure this new battery works properly?

    I know how to reset the bios with the jumper. The new battery was bought and installed straight away. Do you think there is a likelyhood that 2 batteries could be failures! What should i do?
