I`m only guessing here, as I`m having a hard time fully understanding your post.

Maybe the cmos battery needs replacing?

System specs
Don't waste any more time trying to fix as you may well put the warranty status at risk. It may well be either a motherboard fault or CMOS battery failure; whatever, it is a warranty matter on a new machine.
