Best Answer

In the CMOS.

System CMOS Date/Time is stored in the configuration settings in memory timing to be used by BIOS upon startup. RAM located on the motherboard must have continuous power to maintain the data (Date/Time). When time begins to read slowly or fails to keep up with current time it is a significant clue that the battery for CMOS is fading or may be dead and should be replaced.
