Maybe there is some problem in the bios of your motherboard, you may try to update the bios.

On the other hand, Which anti -virus software you are using currently?

automatically changing to 2005

Is it after each reboot ? You might try to boot from a dos disk or any cd and so check if it's a software/hardware problem.

Well... now that I write this, you can even go into BIOS directly after reboot and see if it has already changed.

Is the PC on network/domain ?

This is caused by a low CMOS Battery. But you've changed that recently. Try resetting your BIOS to the default configuration.

I hope it's ok to post a link to another forum, unfortunately there is no clear solution there but you might get some clues about your problem :-
