Solution for me
This is an old thread but it's the only one I could find stating the problem I had when I just bought a second hand virus. The patches would store for a little while after I powered off, but after about 10 mins or so that message would appear and I'd lose all settings (MIDI) and patches (A/B). I'd get random ascii for titles in banks A and B and the patches were so random they were unplayable/silent.
I opened up my Virus Classic and there is a standard CR2032 camera battery in there that's very easy to change out. The brand on the battery was VARTA. I looked them up and that site looks as German as can be, so I was happy that it was probably the original battery.
I replaced with one from the corner drug store, and my patches have been good for a few days now. All set!
