How does the computer show the correct time everytime its swithced ON?

Question

Doesn't the clock stop working when the computer is shut down?

Answer 1

Nope, it has its own internal clock.. there is a battery just for that inside

Answer 2

there is a battery in the that will keep the clock on no matter if the computer is turned on or off. It is just like a regular clock but it's hidden with a little battery that never runs out of power. But if you want you can change the time, and it will continue from where you edit it.

Answer 3

Computers depend on an accurate internal clock signal to allow synchronized processing. A clock signal oscillates between a high and a low state, normally with a 50% duty cycle, and is usually a square wave. Circuits using the clock signal for synchronization may become active at either the rising or falling edge, or both (see for example DDR SDRAM), of the clock signal

Answer 4

Computers have a battery on the motherboard, and windows checks the time against a master atomic clock if it is connected to the internet.

Answer 5

There is something on the motherboard called the CMOS battery that regulates and keeps the time correct and constant. When the clock in your computer is getting late, it is time to replace this CMOS battery.

Answer 6

There are all kinds of subroutines occurring in your computer at all times. A chronometer is a simple iteration loop. You can even write a simple URL string that will keep the same time no matter how many generations it is copied or passed from computer to computer, etc.

Answer 7

Internal clock is always running

Answer 8

A battery does all the work.
