Is there a battery for the rtc and have you replaced it? An empty cell might cause a voltage drop and have weird effects.

CMOS battery is dead, but are you really sure that is it? I mean it holds bios settings as long as I keep it plugged in

I don’t know, but if it is easy to replace or even remove I would try that - won’t make it any worse at least.
