Saturn can't tell the time

[Tripredacus]

Well I haven't really posted a "my Saturn is broke" thread so here is one. Except it isn't really broke because it still works. Eventually when I get my AV system all fixed upstairs (it is waiting on getting my HTPC internet to work) then I can take pictures.

Anyways, the Saturn always asks for the time and language every time it turns on. Do I just need to replace the battery inside to fix this or could there be another problem?

I also do not know the state of my memory cart. I seem to be missing some games since I last used it, the ones that had data stored on the memory cart. I am going to go get those games again to see if it still has the data. If it doesn't have the data anymore, does that mean the cart is bad or can I still use it going forward?

This!

a) As everyone else said, its the battery.
b) If the data doesn't show up on the cart in the memory manager I would think that it is gone.

Perhaps more useful to tell someone how to replace the battery, so here's a link to the section on our FAQ
