    If you're lucky it might be the battery which powers the CMOS memory which needs replacing.

    Otherwise I would guess that you have got a leaky capacitor on your motherboard, and the motherboard needs replacing.

    I suppose another possibility is a virus which has scribbled all over the flash memory.
