PC time won't update after waking up from sleep

[zemiak]

Hey guys,

A couple months ago my PC randomly decided to stop updating the time after waking up from sleep (overnight usually). I have it set to Set Time Automatically and Set Time Zone Automatically but when I wake it up from sleep, it stays at the time that it was when I put it to sleep. I have to turn Set Time Automatically off and then back on again for it to correct the time.

Anybody know why this is happening? It's kind of a hassle that I don't want to deal with anymore

Thanks

I would replace the CMOS/BIOS battery on the motherboard.

I've heard that might be the problem, is this something I should be concerned about doing ASAP or could this cause other problems? Its been a few months and that's the only problem I've noticed.

It shouldn't be a major problem.
I do recall that it can cause you to have issues with secure websites (https)
