Sounds like you need to replace the computer's battery.

Bios battery has gone....

take the case of, check the number on the battery, get another one and replace it.

if you can't see a battery on the main board that looks like that, then could be a little harder!

Don't delay. A flat battery eventually becomes a leaking battery. The escaped electrolyte eats away the copper on the motherboard tracks.
