Help! I can't figure out why I am getting this

[tfhummel]

Hello, I am getting this BIOS screen basically every time I start up my pc. I don't know what is causing it. Its almost like it isn't keeping the saved clock and date data. Please help. Thank you.

More than likely the battery on the motherboard needs to be changed.

That's what I thought too. Well one of the many things I was thinking lol. Do you know if a walmart would sell them?

Yup...Wally World sells the 2032 batteries.
On a side note: do you have a usb drive in your pc while booting it up? Remove it first before you re-boot

Ok I will give that a try. Thank you!

So I tried the new battery and I tried unplugging the external USB's and im still getting it. I am running out of options... Any other suggestions?

After you installed the new battery, did you go into the BIOS and set the date/time and reset to defaults on it?

Yes. It automatically sent me to change it because of it being removed. I turned it off and let it sit for a half hour turned it back on and it was fine. Turned it off for another half hour and it started doing it again.
