BIOS Settings don't stick? (M17x)
Hey guys, I have an Alienware M17X R1 that I'm having issues with keeping BIOS settings. I'm switching Integrated Graphics off so my GPU's function properly. If I just startup the system normally, only my 9400M Integrated GPU functions. So every time I boot up the PC I have to go into the BIOS and change the Integrated Graphics off. BIOS version is A07. Any ideas?
Specs:
M17x R1
Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 @ 2.80GHz
(2) NVIDIA GTX 260M
NVIDIA G 9400M
NVIDIA nForce 730i Chipset
Windows 7 Ultimate

Is this happening with other BIOS settings or the issue is only with the graphics cards?

Not really sure, I don't change any of the other settings. But they seem to not save either. CMOS Battery maybe?

Yes I will say that the CMOS battery is damage.
