    Are you saying it's losing time in the BIOS, or just in the OS? While not common, I have heard of MOBO's requiring a BIOS update to solve time drift issues. Couldn't hurt to check to see if there's a newer version.

    yeah the bios is losing time too.

    I flashed the bios and replaced the battery again just in case...so far it seems to be ok but i am not betting on it yet
