I have a PB180c which appears in fine shape except that the day & time change constantly before my eyes. Setting Date & Time in Control Panels seems to have no effect. Would this be a clock/cmos battery problem?
No this isn't a symptom of a failed PRAM battery. Those symptoms are the clock is set to 1956 or 1904 at start up and certain settings get reset to defaults. The battery powered clock is only used to set a software clock at boot up. It is this software clock that is changing before your eyes. Try disabling extensions and see if your clock still changes.
