So for the past few days I sety my new build up an its working almost perfectly but one problem...

Everytime I turn it off of a night to go to bed, when I wake up the next day it wont turn on becaudse the BIOS has resetted (Voltages has changed etc) so to fix this I take one slot of ram out an put it back in an it'll turn on fine and then I change the BIOS back to what it was....

Why is it my BIOS+CMOS Keeps resetting? Anyway to fix this would be great thanks!

Also would it matter what slots I have my RAM in? I have 2GBx2 an one in a blue slot and the other in a blue slot...

Can anyone tell me if my 3DMark06 score is good for my set-up too?
My score was as follows...

3DMark Score 11654 3DMarks

SM 2.0 Score 4499 Marks

SM 3.0 Score 5299 Marks

CPU Score 3656 Marks

and my set-up is
Abit-IP35 Pro Motherboard
OCZ 4GB RAM
Q6600 @ 2.4
8800GTS 512...

Nothing has been overclocked atall....

Sorry for so many questions bu thanks again for any infp/help:)
 
Bump again

Just incase im missing anything...to save the BIOS i should just exit it right? ofcourse press "y" when it prompts me to exit with the changes?
or is it more to it to save it?
Please help :)
 
Check the CMOS battery with a multimeter/tester, should be registering about 3V, if not then that's your problem :)

that's a problem I've encontered a number of times, they are only pennies to replace and always worth doing, I've even seen them be below voltage on a new board.
