The main cause, as explained, is the battery (CR2032).
You need to change it.
It causes also BSOD.


The OP did mention that he tested the CMOS battery and it read above
3.0VDC.

Now it could be the battery holder that is defective. You need to check
that Vbb is getting to the timekeeper - and someone kindly posted a ink
to the schematics so the OP can check that out now more easily.

Hi John,

I was testing the battery voltage where the battery holder's terminals
are soldered to the board.

Now that I have the schematic, it should be fairly simple (famous last
words, right?) to track down the fault.

Thanks for your reply.
