What do i need to remove to get to it
Be nice to know what make and model you have. They are not all located in the same place.
Since I don't know the model, your best bet is to google CMOS battery replacement for your brand. There are hundreds of youtube vids and step by step instructions on the net.
You may be able to do it yourself. Some are easy, others require complete disassembly of the laptop...better left to a PC repair tech. It's EXTREMELY easy to damage a laptop beyond repair if you don't know what you are doing. You have been warned!
Do the following:
"To "Remove the CMOS battery form the computer!"
Shut-down the computer.
"Unplug the computer from the {Wall Out-let}.
Remove the Lithium battery from the "Notebook."
There is a compartment (underneath) the "Notebook that 'store' the CMOS battery."
"You will need a {very small Phillips screwdriver}.
Remove the CMOS battery for: [30 minutes].
!Important: If you have to do it again?
Remove the CMOS battery for a {'longer amount of time'}.
Replace the "CMOS battery."
Next, "Only plug-in the "Power Adapter" into the computer.
"Do not - replace the "Lithium battery!"
Once you have completed these 'task'.
"Restart the computer."
"Press the [F2] key, to 'enter' the CMOS / BIOS Setup!"
Next, 'reset' (all) "Values to the Default Settings."
"Press the [F10] key to 'Save' the changes!"
!Important: "Take a 'moment to rate the help', so I can get 'credit' for the work.
Thank you!" - paul7of9
