    Is this what happens?
    You set the time/date so it's correct and switch off the computer.
    Then a bit later you switch it on again and the time/date is wrong?

    If thats the case it's def the battery.

    Or you could have it pointed to an incorrect time server. If you go to the control panel, Time And Date, and select the Internet Time tab usually the time server is set to time.windows.com. If you have it pointed to a different NTP server it could have the wrong time.

    I have seen computers set to 2548 in Asia before, but that is for countries like Thailand that use the Buddhist calendar instead of the Gregorian one like we do. It is 543 years ahead of ours.

    this is the wierd thing.i could be on the internet like this,typing,switch pages.all of a sudden,i cant log in,tells me theres and error in my cookies.the times right,and the region,the only thing that changes is the year.it sets itself to 2165.

    this dosent happen when i restart,its while im going to log in to different sites it will change.this is the crazy thing,it wont happen everytime.happened about 4-5 times today and a couple times yesterday.

    this cant be a mobo problem can it?

    it could be a little virus that is messing with ur computers year data base, or maybe its a website that you go onto which is setting ur computer to that year without you knowing, or you might of downloaded a program that might have caused this to happen hope this helps a little bit
