Ibm Thimkpad T20

Hi All
Our laptop hardly gets used now but I turned it on tonight mainly to update AVG and instead of booting up it says "error please check date and time" and then appears to be waiting for a password ? which we have never had.
It does the same if I try to go into BIOS (F1) or use the only other option which is select boot (F12).
I thought maybe the CMOS battery may have gone flat but I thought it would still load a default BIOS with this flat.

I do have an identical one for spares but has anyone any ideas before I start meddling
It is/was running XP pro
Many thanks
Pete
