    Hey

    Im the somewhat happy owner of a Amilo xi1546, it works fine when it is running, and is stabile when running games and apps... the problem is when its just idling in windows, ive expered that its just turning off, and when I turn it on again, it has lost the time and date, so it goes back to 4/4-2004 and resets the clock aswell... Ive tryed it simply restarting completly, when its turnd on after being put in sleep and resetting the clock aswell... If it has been turned off it rememberes the clock... Also it has 2 times in the 3 weeks ive had it locked up after been awaked from sleep, also resetting the clock...

    Anyone got some ideas to what can be wrong ?? :confused:

    Sounds like a CMOS battery problem to me. For some reason the battery is not being recharged and this is your settings are changing.

    How old is the notebook? If it's still under warranty I would suggest sending to back to Fujitsu for repair.
