If the Date and Time Are Incorrect

The date and time can be incorrect because the time has changed for
the seasons, or because the Personal Workstation has been unplugged
from the power too long, and the Gold Capacitor which supplies power
to the CMOS memory has discharged. To recharge the Gold Capacitor,
plug the Personal Workstation into the power for one hour (there is no
need to start the Personal Workstation).
You can install an external battery that will keep track of the date and
time if the Personal Workstation is unplugged for more than one week
(the external battery connector is shown on page 114). Contact your
HP dealer for complete information about installing an external
battery.
Use the Setup program to change the date and time.
