I just got a saturn of of ebay (never had one back in the day).
Anyways, every time I turned it on, it asked for the date/time etc...and sure enough it wasn't keeping saved games after a power off.
I assumed it was the bios battery, and a little internet checking would sugest I was right..
Anyways.. I found a battery in an old pc motherboard I had under the bed.. the correct sort etc etc. and swapped the old battery for this one.
Now...it keeps my savegames after a power off (am using Nights to test)....but it's still asking for the date/time on every power up.
I'm assuming the battery is cool, as the save game is still there.. just the date/time doesn't hold.
Am I missing something obvious?
