Yeah, things seem fine.

I'm sure your PC has a battery.  The CMOS battery is there to provide power to prevent things like the time and PC's BIOS settings from going away.  But naturally, when the battery dies, you need to replace the battery and reset the time and other settings in the BIOS.  Older PCs from the 80s often had a battery directly soldered to the motherboard, but newer PCs tend to use one of those flat round CR2032 batteries that are easier to replace.
