BIOS Battery Prob?

Hey all.

Recently, every now and again when i switch my comp on, it gets to the 'Detecting IDE Drives' in POST, and stops. Nothing.
The only way i can get it back again, is to reset the CMOS, then boot it up again. Its becoming more frequent too, like every time i switch my comp on in the morning.
I havent done anything to knacker up anything on the board, so i doubt its something i've done.

Is it just the CMOS Battery dying? Or something more sinister?

Cheers

Jooster
