CMOS

Despite no hardware changes to my Windows 10 PC, during boot up it has started to show this 'error' message. It doesn't say why, but only boots after I press F1 and either discard changes & exit, or save changes & exit. Motherboard is Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 with the latest 2015 American Megatrends...

Hi, I've had this issue for years now but seems to be getting worse. Basically out of the blue one day my computer stopped turning on normally and begun this loop of booting, lasting anywhere from 2 to 20 seconds and then shutting down and repeating. The strange thing was that if i let it...
