^^ how old is your mobo - just buy a new CMOS battery and replace the current one - this should solve your issue.

your bios may be corrupted somwhow but there's also may be issue with the CMOS battery holder of the mobo ( though this is rare ).

As for how to update bios consult your mobo's manual - if you need more info we are here to help ;-)

No need for a BIOS flash. Just change the battery. It is not retaining values.

OP ie harimankada has tried changing the CMOS battery :
