Could be the battery cell has come to its end. Get a new one, replace
the old one and check again!

Good luck!

It is highly annoyed at your shouting, and has exhausted its cmos
battery. Replace it.

Motherboard battery. Check your keyboard too, the one you are using seems to
have the capslock jammed.

I worked on a motherboard the other day and I had to download the .pdf of
the manual, as my mate had lost his, and it turned out, that the motherboard
I was working on, stores the information in two places, one of them being
the "EEPROM" (which was a option on the BIOS Screen) in the manual it
advised me, that is the power cord was removed from the machine (if I was
moving the pc to another room) there would be settings on the machine I'd
have to reset, like the system date and time, when I booted it back up, and
put the other settings from the "EEPROM", so technically the bios was
forgetting all the settings if I was to remove power...

when you've finished with your machine, and you power down, do you also
switch off at the mains?

Even if you switch to "Default (factory) settings"?
