I am getting regular CMOS errors when I turn on the PC. Has the battery just gone or do I need to replace the bios?

Thanks

Go to CMOS setup and try and restore the default settings.  Got a CMOS FAQ here:

Sounds like either a battery or the cmos rom itself is going belly-up. I'd try replacing the battery first.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
