friends, i am yet to study "over clocking" but.

For couple of months my p4 with 512ram and a 60gb intel' clock is resetting to January 2002 on every delayed boot.

I have to press F5 for every 1st boot to restart my pc. After 1st boot it never read cmos . And after pressing F5 thereafter it starts, read cmos but clock resets to year 2002.

If i set the current time and reboot in quick succession again( say immediate or within 20 mins), the time set by me is saved.

But if i restart the pc after about half an hour, it looses cmos informmation and the time resetting to year2002 again.

Is that only a battery problem?

Why it is reading cmos settings on every 2nd boot?

any guess? answers?
