I keep resetting the clock and the date in windows but it keeps getting messed up. Please help

From my experience this has usually happened when the motherboard's CMOS battery is going flat, if the time is not staying set like you put it. You may have to buy a new one. They don't cost all that much, at least not here in Australia, and I do generally think it's that because that's one of the signs.

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.

Check your CMOS battery, that drives the RTC.

Interesting, we all had the same answer. :D
