Asrock z68 extreme 4 gen 3 bios clock out of sync

[RobertR1]

My bios clock has been freaking out and is all over the place. This makes windows time go well out of sync with actual time also.

To make matters worse, I can't get even 1day of system stability even just idle at the desktop.

Do I just need to change the battery on the mobo or RMA? Board is less than 1yr old.

Changing the battery is the easiest solution, but you may need to RMA. I had a 386 motherboard that had wacky timekeeping once, had to return it. They didn't believe me what was happening, until they put it on the bench to test it out.

Thanks Larry. I'll hit up Fry's first and then RMA if that fails.
