Hey Guys!
I have a Dell XPS M1210 laptop. When i try to boot it up I get this warning:
BIOS Error 163 - Time and Date not set.
The system time is invaled. This may be a result of a loss in battery power. Set the correct time and date using your OS. If this mesage persists you may want to replace the onboard battery. I changed the time and now it constantly restarts itself. I can press delete and go to the OS but can't get to windows.
Your BIOS battery may not be working, that causes time and date to reset and BIOS doen't save your setting.
This is a common problem and it has nothing to worry about...
Just replace your bios battery and you might be able to fix your problem!
All the best
Even i thought its the bios battery issue, but its not cause i changed the battery and now still the same issue... help me guys!
Try resetting your cmos, either with a jumper on the main board, or by popping out the button battery [bios battery] for 20 minutes after its unplugged.
All the best!
i have tried that too, but nothing seems to work... any more solutions??
Try logging in safe mode, can you get through? if yes then scan if any viruses, your MBR or boot sector may be infected which doesn't let you boot your OS. Do post back...! All the best..!
