Asus z97 Deluxe bios reset problem

[giammyzanna]

Hello everyone.
First thing are the specs of the system I'm referring to:
-Asus z97 deluxe mobo (with thunderbolt card)
-Core i7 4th gen
-32 Gb of RAM
-Nvidia gt 630 gpu
-500 GB Samsung SSD and a few hard drives

This hackintosh has been working for quite a while but a few days ago it gave the famous boot0 error and apparently the bios reset too. I've already tried the guide to resolve that issue but I later realized that it doesn't work for the Clover bootloader. I wanted to format the drive anyway so I did that and installed High Sierra with no problems. It booted with no problems for a day or two but this morning the bios reset again (the time also gets reset) and the boot0 error came back. This time I just fixed the settings on the bios to get it working but it's a pain to do it almost everyday. What could be the problem?
Thank you

Replace the CMOS battery.

Replace the CMOS battery.

I thought of that too (and at the moment I don't have a multimeter to test it) but could it be that? I have PCs that are more than 10 years old and never had a problem.

When fault finding it is often best to start with the most obvious or the cheapest item, the CMOS battery ticks both boxes.

That's a good point hehe. Thanks for the moment, I'll get back with the results after replacing it

Hello, apparently replacing the battery did something. It still locks at the "Asus" lock screen but if I reset it a few times it starts up.
