Computer time is stopping when pc is turned off?

[GeorgeR0505]

Hi, I have recently been having trouble with my PC's clock, when i shut down my computer and turn it back on the next day or whatever, the clock is still on the time when i shut down my PC.

I have looked this up and replaced the CMOS battery and it has made no difference, i have also been through my BIOS and no luck,

 

Any help appreciated,

 

i5 4670k

ASUS maximus Hero VI

8Gb corsair vengeance 1886mhz

500gb Samsung 850 Evo

WD 2TB hdd

EVGA 760 SC ACX

Windows 8.1

maybe the electrical connection of the cmos battery is broken

is there anyway to test if it is broken?

^ Most likely

To narrow the problem down to the CMOS (and not the OS deciding to cache the time, linux does on some distros), try setting the time in the BIOS then shutting down your pc (Also unplug it, which forces the CMOS battery to continue maintaining the time) and after a while, say about 2-3 minutes, plug it back in and see if the time has changed. If it hasn't changed then there's most likely a fault with your cmos clock circuitry.

 

Edit: Do you have automatic time updating turned on in Windows? That should automatically fix your time even if your CMOS circuitry is dead

When you say turn it back on and check to see if the time has changed, should i go into the BIOS and see if it has changed there or boot into windows?

Check the BIOS

Okay so i shut my pc down after checking the time and it didnt change, shall i try a different battery ive got 4 of them maybe its a dodgy one,

 

if it turns out my mobo CMOS connector is broken is it repairable or will ASUS have a look at it?

Could it be linked to something else, because my Google Chrome keeps crashing and when i open new tabs i get the, he's dead jim screen, its happen quite often?
