FIRST REMOVE YOUR CAPS LOCK YOU MAY ALSO WANT TO USE PROPER PUNCTUATION ITS TIRING TO READ AND VERY AGGRESSIVE.

See?

One possibility is that one of your devices corrupts the CMOS and it resets itself on each reboot: check your extension cards, and if you use mostly integrated devices (ethernet, wifi, SATA controller, sound), try disabling them one by one in BIOS and stop the computer - wait 5 minutes - reboot and see when it stops doing a checksum error. For video, if you don't have an IGP, swap it.

If not, change your motherboard: there's probably a bad contact between the CMOS chip and the battery (it's valid too if one of the integrated devices causes the CMOS corruption).
