After rebooting date/time have reverted back to an earlier time - approx. 2
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 ??.
Internet time check is done through time.windows.com

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?
