Its due to CMOS Battery provided by your motherboard manufacturer.

Important system settings like Date, Time, Booting Sequence, Numlock On/Off at startup etc. are stored in CMOS. When your PC is switched off, these settings are saved powered by the battery.

Actually it's call a CMOS battery. In earlier computers, it didn't just keep track of time but also kept track of important booting information. When some older computers have a hard time booting and you have to reconfigure things each time, the first thing you would do is see if it was losing time - because it was a sign you needed a new battery. With the newer computers, I believe it just tracks time and date....

It's called a CMOS battery and it will eventually go bad and need to be replaced. When your system stops keeping the date and time, that means it's time to replace.

There is a component on the motherboard called "CMOS." CMOS is the component which is responsible for keeping time for the computer. CMOS has its own battery; therefore, it doesn't need the computer to be on for it to keep time.

i think of you need to end using AVG then. try symantec or in spite of else obtainable. it could be a registery crash or module crash. what number antiviruses you have on your computing gadget? Its extra clever to easily use one. And with that it is likewise no longer adequate. you need to disable centers jointly with homestead windows defender. this is a topic to have double centers from distinctive companies. if my answer doesnt artwork, try this in case you could. swap your ram to a distinctive obtainable slot. If the close down is a surprising, then it could be mom board subject. if the close down is very in a common technique, then it could be an endemic that happens on your close down module/registery. in case you have 2 hardisks, the virus would pass to the different documents tension and it will make itself a great gentle resident for yet another replica of itself to stay. in the time of your ability of formatting the device tension, it could be like watching the device tension formated and giggling. as quickly as the formating and installation executed, it is going to pass back to the close down registery interior the device folder back. dont take this heavily ok, i'm basically thinking of the prospect. if this is fairly what's occurring, then my answer is to eliminate the different tension and you in basic terms do the formating. Then, have somebody or different computing gadget to format the innovations tension. then after that, placed the situation back into your computing gadget. then the completed situation could be sparkling. this additionally utilized in case you have single hardisk with 2 partition on it. you will ought to eliminate the partition, then reformat, then create the partition back. or in keeping with possibility, your AVG isn't tollerant to device registeries. So like I suggested, the virus caught interior the registery and that registery ensue to be between the registery that conducts the shutdown technique. what ensue is that once you swap on your computing gadget, it form of freezes for a on an identical time as, yet its no longer actual freezing. It runs a history technique that regenerate that module/registery that has been knocked down via AVG. it is like a husband who kills his spouse for stealing his lunch. -_-" good luck
