i have an old pc with the following config:
i5 4460,
gigabyte B85 d3ha motherboard,
8 GB DDR3,
corsair VS 450 (grey label)
ssd+hdd
Corsair carbide 200r cabinet
a few weeks earlier,it started displaying cmos settings wrong error at startup,which prompted me to replace the cmos battery with a new one (panasoic cr2032).Surprisingly however despite changing battery,it still continued to display the same error every now and then,resulting in wrong date/time being displayed upon starting the pc.
I replaced the battery with another panasonic cell (from a newer batch) which didn't solve the problem either-sometimes it boots at startup without issues,but occasionally it still displays the same cmos settings error at startup and in windows it shows incorrect date and time.
I dont understand why this problem hasn't been resolved despite changing the cmos battery twice in a row.And btw,the batteries used were new and had not crossed their expiry dates.Is something else causing the problem?I had measured the voltage on one of the batteries before installing it on the mobo-and it gave a reading of around 3.2 V which indicates it was in good condition.
Please suggest what can i do to resolve it as its becoming a major annoyance day by day.
