I keep getting system date not correct. How can I fix this?

Hi:

 

If you are getting that message every time you start the PC, most likely you need to replace the coin cell battery on the motherboard.

 

It uses a standard CR2032 3 V battery.

 

See appendix B page 50 at the link below for how to change the battery.

I believe the battery in the 8000 Elite SFF is the Type 2 removal illustration.

Thank you for responding. I am getting this message when I get my PC tested for a work from home job.

You're very welcome.

 

You can reset the time and date in Windows by following these instructions...

When you restart the PC in the moring, and you get a date and time error, then you will probably need to change that battery.

 

That is what keeps the time when the PC is shut off.

Thank you so much.  I'll let you know what happens

Anytime.

 

Glad to have been of assistance.
