Hi Squeaker
It seems your battery has died on your BIOS. Its a round silver battery and need to be replaced. Really easy to do and easy to get hold of a new one 
"Parent's are the bone's on which their children sharpen their teeth" Never be afraid to do your best work and let the world enjoy it. Never let someone tell you not to try something because it's stupid. Turn off the recommended settings. Break your computer and learn to fix it. |

Yep, as TD said, " cmos checksum error - defaults loaded" means dead battery.
