Solved! CMOS date and time

[abhipw]

I am using Dell Vostro 1015 notebook with Windows 7 OS. Every time I boot, it asks me to set date, time and year. What should I do to avoid this?

First, you should take the option to reset all settings to FACTORY DEFAULT, reboot set the time again.

If it keeps happening then there is nothing to do to but open it and replace the CMOS battery, or have a Pro do this if u are uncomfortable. Lots of tiny, easily break-able cables inside a laptop.
