Issue When you turn your Toshiba computer on, you see an error message like: **** Bad RTC battery **** **** Bad Checksum (CMOS) **** Check system, then press [F1] key The Real Time Clock (RTC) battery provides http://support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?soid=355107 power for the internal clock/calendar and for maintaining system configuration settings. This error can occur http://www.computing.net/answers/hardware/cmos-not-holding-memory-even-after-new-battery-is-installed/87240.html when a machine has been left turned-off for an extended period of time (approximately one to four months), and it is the result of a depleted RTC battery. Other symptoms include not being able to execute Windows Update properly, errors/problems executing application software (like Norton Antivirus), and the appearance of the Windows XP "Desktop Clean Wizard". Resolution This real time condition is easy to fix in 3 basic steps: Reset the BIOS defaults Set the correct date and time in Windows. Charge the RTC battery Please follow the detailed instructions in the next section. Procedure Set BIOS defaults Press the [F1] key as instructed in the error message: **** Bad RTC battery **** **** Bad Checksum (CMOS) **** Check system, then press [F1] key In the BIOS setup screen press the [Home] real time clock key to restore the default values, then press the [End] key to save and exit, then the [Y] key to confirm and restart the system. Set the correct date and time in Windows As Windows starts-up, you may see an error message about an "Invalid System Time". Go ahead and click "OK" to clear the error dialog. Open the Windows Control Panel and open the "Date and Time" control by double-clicking its icon. Set the correct date and time, then click OK to save. Charge the Real Time Clock (RTC) battery To charge the RTC battery, connect the AC adapter and turn the computer on (both the DC IN and Power LEDs must be green). Leave the machine on for approximately 24 hours to ensure a full charge in the RTC battery. Please note that the RTC battery does not charge while the PC is turned off, regardless of whether the AC adapter is connected or not. Other Information: If, on subsequent reboots, the "Bad RTC Battery" error persists, it's quite likely that you actually do have a bad RTC battery. If that's the case, you should contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Provider to have the system serviced.

I'm getting a checksum error when I boot. I replaced the battery on the motherboard after first unplugging the computer. I then rebooted and corrected the date and time, loaded and saved the factory CMOS defaults, and the computer starts fine. However, if I turn it off and switch off the power strip, the CMOS memory is lost and I must repeat the process. I've checked the battery. Any ideas? Thanks.

You could also check with Gateway to see if there is a BIOS update to address this problem. Unless the computer has been subjected to a power surge I can't understand why this should be occurring. Below is a link to Gateway downloads. It appears there may be some BIOS updates. The latest one gives no reason for the update. Be aware that flashing the BIOS MAY result in a non operational computer.http://support.gateway.com/us/en/pr... See in Thread ↓#1 phil22 September 28, 2012 at 08:44:46 Did you check that the new CMOS battery is the same way up as the old one was? (usually the '+' side of the battery should be face up).If it's inserted the wrong way up it won't do any harm, but neither will it be able to do it's job. Report • #2 timothytech September 28, 2012 at 10:45:08 Oh, yes. It's in correctly. (I'm a retired sound and communications service tech. I'd better know by now which side of a battery is which!) I know maybe the next step is to meter the PC board and make sure the battery holder is making a good connection and not broken. It's a pain
