    months - this has just started to occur - using windows ultimate on a laptop
    - noticed other users having similar problems, how do I access BIOS date &
    time to check that?? & where do I find the CMOS battery on a laptop please ??.

    RE: Date/Time Reset Problems

    Would restting the BIOS help with my problem? I am trying to get broadband on
    a notebook but it keeps coming up saying unable to connect, something to do
    with area/country codes ( according to Orange) but they can't do anything so
    they said to ask Microsoft. If I change the boot reset for cd's would this
    help with this situation?
