The motherboard's CMOS battery may be flat (or at least may have dropped below 3 volts) so try replacing it with a new one.

can i use this one CR-2025EL

lol - you use the same size/model battery as the one that's in there now, usually it's a CR2032 3-volts.

The CR-2025EL is the same voltage & diameter, but is 0.9 mm thicker so it can't be used to replace a CR2032 battery.

You need to check the info on the existing motherboard battery - part number will be printed on it.
