Hi Every1

I had a 256MB DDR ram. Now i
added another 256MB SD Ram and a SonyDVD Writer,but
now when i switch on my computer
before the windowsXP loading screen
appears I get the following error msg

CMOS Checksum Error- Defaults Loaded


Press F1 to continue or DEL to enter Setup


When I press F1, Windows is started but
the time and date is not correct, so everytime
I need to correct my Date and Time.....

How can I solve this Problem?

Thanks

Hi, I had the same problem a week ago and I had to change my motherboard. I had a flood in my basement and my computer was in it. At first my Technicien told me everything was working fine but I did have to change the computer box because it would have rusted. Then I realized I didn't have any sound and I had the same problem your having. Since the new motherboard all is well. I hope this is helping you. Good Luck!:)

Change the CMOS battery.

Date and time are in control panel.

CMOS Checksum Error- Defaults Loaded

This type of error usually occurs when the battery of the motherboard it very weak. You can change the battery and check if its working fine.
