Welcome!
Computer Hope is the number one location for free computer help.
The forum will help everyone with all computer questions.

How old is your computer? Is it a laptop? Have you made recent changes? Is the OS Windows 98 or Windows 98 SE? How much RAM? How bing is the Hard Drive?

Have you ever replaced the CMOS cell?  Have you checked the BIOS settings to see if the default settings are being used?
