I think this is a symptom of the CMOS battery being too low. It can be
replaced.
You can flick it out with a screwdriver!
There aren't much in the way of issues in doing that. i think the
battery has 2 letters followed by 4 digits. e.g. something like CR
2032 or something.. And there's something along the lines of the
letters not mattering. So you buy a new battery with the same number.
i just go into my electronics store, show them the battery i took out,
and they point me to a replacement. Dead cheap. it's like a big watch
battery. Like a silver coin.
I guess it's worth noting which way the one in there goes in. just so
you don't put the new one in the wrong way.
