dunno wat the reason of the problem is ..but

My system clock (the rtaskbar clock) seems to be not working properly ..meaning it is running late ...
even if i had set it to the current time again and again
its lagging :sad::confused:

Also many times while booting its showing that the sys date n time is not set and i hav to set it evwery time through Setup.:sad: ok this may be a case of CMOS battey prblm but wat about sysdate n time?


checking CMOS battery ...any other suggestions (software) ....;)

Its the famous CMOS Battery Gone dead case.. Replace the battery its hardly costs 15-20 bucks. The time which is shown in taskbar is in sync with BIOS clock.. unless you have changes it to a different time zone.
