UsuallyFirst I would replace the PRAM battery just to be sure.

Usually
the date will sometimes reset to Aug 27th of 19571956 when the PRAM battery goes bad. I don't think that is your problem. MyIf not the battery, my guess is that it's a system update error. This date used to happen a lot with 10.2.4. What system are you using?

Side note: When it goes completely flat the date reverts to either Aug 27th 1956, the birthday of Ray Montagne who designed the CUDA microcontroller in Macs, or it reverts to 'zero year' which is Jan 1 1904 (chosen as the starting year because 1900 wasn't a leap year).

Usually the date will sometimes reset to Steve Jobs birthday in Aug Aug of 1957 when the PRAM battery goes bad. I don't think that is your problem. My guess is that it's a system update error. This used to happen a lot with 10.2.4. What system are you using?
