First take note of whether you are losing time while the computer
is running or while it's powered off. If it's while powered off,
the problem *is* very likely the battery. But if it's while
running, it can *not* be the battery.

If the clock loses time while running, try this:

Open a command prompt window (Start | Run | cmd) and enter the
following commands:

net stop w32time
w32tm /unregister
w32tm /register
net start w32time
 
if this is laptop/notebook check battery status
might need new system battery
this is what reads in other posts about clocks acting up.
