hi all,
hopefully you can help with this one,
fitted a new motherboard to pc (hp compact s3621uk)old one packed in,it seems to
a common fault in these machines from all the reviews ,
my problem is this
every night i switch every thing off and pull out all plugs due to my kids being energy consious , but in the morning i have to reset the time and date , if i just switch off as normal every things fine????
any ideas guys
When you fitted the new motherboard, did you put a new CMOS battery in. It looks like a watch battery about the size of a 10p piece. When the pc's off the battery provides enough power to remember date and time.
