Computer starts up January 01, 1601 12:02am

[D Phyper]

Does anybody know how to correct the time clock when
starting the computer (typically after being turned off
overnight) where the time clock shows January 01, 1601
12:02am. This little quirk upon booting up in this year
deletes all information from the previous day.

Any suggestions as to how this can be fixed.

Thank you,
D Phyper

Your CMOS attery is probably dead. You'll most likely
need to replace it on the computer's motherboard.
