Are you getting asked to input the date and time when you turn the laptop on? Time to replace the bios (or CMOS) battery.

Replaing the CMOS battery on this model is problematic, since it requires you almost have to disassemble the entire laptop.. You have remove the following:

Keyboard cover(page 2-13)
Speaker (page 2-15)
Keyboard (page 2-16)
Switchboard PCA(page 2-19)
CD/DVD (page 2-20
Display (page 2-23)
Top case (page 2-26)
Floppy (page 2-32)
Heat sink (page 2-40)
Motherboard (page 2-50)
