Sometimes i get this message when i bootup my computer.

!Warning!
Some changes in chipset or clock setting caused boot failure.

I can bypass this message by pressing F1 key, after this machine boots up fine and everything works fine.
I get this message roughly 2 times a week. I keep my machine on all day.
Also the computer is only about 7 months old. Originally when i bought the machine this didn't happen, it is fairly recent development. There are no hardware changes since purchase.
Cheers
 
Sounds like you may have gotten a bad CMOS battery. I would test it if you have a multimeter handy. If not, they are cheap, run to Radio Shack and grab one.
