computer problems

Hello, my computer symptoms are 1) clock loses time ( replaced battery to no avail) 2) cursor randomly freezes and unfreezes ( the longer the the computer is on the worse it gets) 3) unable to run disk defragmenter ( computer tells me not enough memory but I do have the memory so ?)
Also if I simply restart the computer the time resets and the cursor does not freeze, at least for a while. can anyone please help? thank you

Somehow, justaguy, it sounds like you've got some weird goodies running in the background if the cursor freezes up and a memory problem is indicated.
Do the Cntl-Alt-Del and see what comes up that is running on your system.
You may have some programs you don't know about playing havoc w/ your resources.
