Hi..

It seems you have a short or leak in your system some where. It is causing the CMOS battery to drain out fast. STOP flashing your BIOS over and over again. Just put it back to the latest version.

'Bread box' your system and try to run it..with a new CMOS battery.

Bread Box = remove the mother board, and place it on the table. Keep some non conductive material below it. Like thermocoal sheet, or a foam pad, or 2-3 mouse pads.

Hook up the processor, heatsink, ram (one stick only), GPU, HDD (only the one with the OS), monitor, keyboard and mouse. Now try to run it...??

Make sure all system settings are stock. RUN IT..STRESS IT..Report back..
