Question Motherboard Bios Resetting to default on PC Shutdown. Z97P-D3

[AndrewMC1994]

Hi,

Recently I have noticed that my bios isn't saving any changes I make after the computer has been shutdown. The settings will work intially but once the computer has been shutdown it will revert back to the default settings of the motherboard.

I have:

Changed the battery on the motherboard.
Reinstalled the bios
Cleared the CMOS
Lowered CPU speed
Unplugged and reconnected everything in my computer, including the ram.
I'm 100% that I hit save when leaving the bios.

None of this has made a difference.

The motherboard is a Gigabyte Z97P-D3

Does this point to a failing motherboard?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is the clear CMOS jumper in the right place?

Yes, I know it worked correctly as on startup it went to the default bios screen with the option to load optimized default or configure bios.
