Laptop date and time setting get disturbed automatically when i reboot my laptop

  • Andrew Calhoun
    Andrew Calhoun Feb 09, 2012

    Can  you elaborate how they are disturbed? Do they go to some random time & date? Does the time zone ever change? Does it always go to the same time zone? If so, which one? Does the clock always change to a time consistently 3 days or 5 hours before or after the real time/date? Or again, is it just random?

When you boot up and the Date & Time is wrong then you correct the Date & Time, then when you shut down and boot up again the Date and Time has changed. This is an indication that the BIOS battery is flat and you need to replace the BIOS battery. Install a new BIOS battery, go into the BIOS setting and set the Date & Time etc. and the new battery will keep your settings stored in the BIOS.

My pc is infected, and I need to reboot it to its factory settings.

Restore your Laptop to Factory Settings is an EASY utility BUILT into Windows -- it CLEANS EVERYTHING...computer and hardware. But, it is HANDY. jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery('.intro .thumbnail a:first').attr('href','http://i.ehow.com/images/a06/6v/d1/reboot-laptop-back-factory-settings-800X800.jpg'); }); Rebooting your laptop back to its factory settings restores your computer and its hardware to its original settings when it was purchased. This is helpful when troubleshooting major hardware and system performance issues. It can also be used to fix virus related issues. Restoring your computer to its factory settings is similar to performing a clean install of your operating system. Windows uses a utility program called System Restore that allows you to restore your computers settings to a specific date.
jQuery('.intro .thumbnail').each(function(i,e){ jQuery(e).find('img').one('error',function(){ jQuery(e).remove(); }); }); Difficulty: Easy Instructions
  1. Step 1 Turn on your computer, and then click on the "Start" menu icon in the bottom left-hand corner of the screen. Select "All Programs," and then click on the "Accessories" drop-down menu.
  2. Step 2 Scroll down to "System Tools," and then select the "System Restore" program and wait for it to open.
  3. Step 3 Select the "Restore My Computer to an Earlier Time" option, and then click on the "Next" button to continue. A window with a calendar will appear.
  4. Step 4 Click on the back arrow in the calendar's window. Click on the back-arrow until you have reached the date you either purchased or installed Windows on your Notebook. Select the appropriate date, and then click on the "Next" button to continue. Your computer will automatically restart.

Not sure if the rtc error is the cause of my problem. Laptop will not boot up after it has been shut down for a few hours. It will turn on and get past the acer screen then simply sits there and does...

You are right on your first assumption...the RTC battery is dead and keeps resetting the cmos control settings. The operating system however is updated to the present and that is where things don't want to play nice together. Change the battery, boot the laptop in safe mode with networking, adjust the date and time. When the laptop loads and is stable, then try to reboot normally into windows.

Below is the link to the service manual for that laptop, you can either click on or copy and paste into the browser address bar. It is free to use, copy and print.

On start up my computer says rtc battery is low or cmos checksum is inconsistent. Press (f1) key to set date/time. I press f1 but nothing happens. blank screen. I can press ctrl alt del and it will restart...

Your RTC battery or CMOS battery is either dead or too low to keep the correct settings, windows will not operate correctly without the proper date and time kept. This battery has to be replaced for your system to operate. Below is the service manual that will advise you of the proper procedure to replace the battery. Once the battery is replaced, reboot the laptop, go to the BIOS screen and reset the date and time, then reboot as normal. In the case of your particular laptop, the laptop has to be disassembled down to the lower case and motherboard. The included service manual has the procedure for this.

Lenovo thinkpad R51e ,when i power on the laptop it show error271

This error message is generated when the BIOS Date and Time is incorrect. Go into the BIOS configuration to change the Date and Time. When you reboot and still get the same error message then the BIOS battery is flat and needs to be replaced and the Date and Time setting needs to be change to the current Date and Time after replacing the battery.
If you cannot get into the BIOS configuration (press F1 on bootup) or you get a lock icon in the top LH corner of the screen, this is a Power on Password symbol, enter the passsword to bootup the laptop and then press F1 to get into the BIOS configuration.

Why my acer laptops 2303 nlc date changes every

Go into your BIOS and change the date there and the save changes and exit. Hopefully on the reboot when you get into windows the dtae will read prroperly If it does then turn off the laptop and then turn it back on and see if the date is still reading properly. If it does then you know it was a BIOS issue.

If the date still doesn't read properly then you know that the BIOS battery is weak and not holding memory and so the battery would need to be replaced.

My laptop is rebooting automatically

Try to start your computer in safe mode and uninstall your last installation of antivirus then try again. Make sure your computer is not set to automatically reboot after any updates or anything. These settings should be in your anti-virus software
