btw, i've tried all kinds of method already :
- changing the mobo's battery
- re-flash the bios
- clear cmos

is there any way i can fix this prob? thx

Do you plug in all the power connector in Mobo ?

last time i did encouter once cannot save BIOS setting just becoz i didn't plug in the floppy and molex power connector for mobo .

probably has got nothing to do with the power supplies, more because your board is not able to retain the cmos memory when the comp is turned off. so that means everytime u turn off ur comp, your cmos resets. it happened to my abit nf-7 and after i change the batt its back to normal again.
