Go to solution Solved by SZ1357,

Two things I'd recommend trying:

 

Updating the BIOS if you haven't already: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/Z97E/HelpDesk_BIOS/

Clearing the CMOS with the jumper.

For more than a year now I've had a problem with my Motherboard were it doesn't save any settings I change in the BIOS.

Battery change has been made just 10 mins ago but with no success of sovling it. This prevents me of course from configuring my PC right, for example everytime I power on my PC i have to load Windows 10 via my SSD boot drice in the bios just to enter my PC. This is obviously very annoying and I really want a to find a fix for it, anyone have experince in this? Much appreciated :)

 

Specs:

Gigabyte GTX 1050TI

I5-4460 3.20Ghz

500GB SSD Samsung

1TB Seagate

ASUS z97-E

8GB DDR3 RAM

It has been my experience with issues like this that if you keep booting into BIOS when turning on/restarting the PC, then there is something wrong in the BIOS that needs to be corrected

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

You haven't left the jumper on the clr_cmos by any chance?  or as above it could be a dodgy bios version, so updating to the most recent might fix it if there is a new one, and if you already have the latest maybe flashing an older version might solve it (if your board supports this).

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.
