I have a K7S5A that is losing its mind every time it is turned off. The system was built for someone else, and for whatever reason, he doesn't like the idea of just leaving his pc on 24/7. When he goes to boot the system, he gets cmos checksum errors and everything has reset to default. I replaced the battery on the board, and I thought that solved the problem. It turns out he just hadn't used the computer for a few days. Any suggestions on what to try next? If it makes any difference, here are the other things in the system:
K7S5A Motherboard
256 megs of Crucial pc133
64 meg MSI Geforce 4 MX440
15 gig HD
Thanks for the suggestions... If all else fails, I'll just RMA it to Newegg.
