Hi, Your RTC battery has probably gone flat and needs to be replaced. Here is a link to the service manual for your laptop. Go to p.6-53 to see how to replace the battery. http://tim.id.au/laptops/hp/hp%20compaq%… Here is a link to just one supplier for the battery. Google just the part number 378236-001-3 for other suppliers that may suit you better. http://www.impactcomputers.com/378236-00…
