Adjustable 430CDT Pro - how to replace the CMOS battery?

Two questions, if I could.

1. the old new 430CDT - does anyone have simple instructions that go I would find the CMOS battery and replace it without destroying the computer in the process? I suspect that it is hidden under the keyboard, but have no idea how to do to remove that. (I'm not very super-friendly upward on computers.)

2. How can I get back in to old posts and give points for helpful answers?

Thank you!

I m not very well, but I doubt you could get access to the only keyboard removing CMOS battery.
Usually it s placed on the motherboard but it s need to disassemble the whole laptop and believe me. It's really complicated and mostly impossible for some who never disassembled a laptop

So if you ask my opinion: contact a technician in downtown and ask for help.

  • Satellite Pro S300-120 does not start after replacing the CMOS battery

    Hello

    My friends laptop - a S300-120 - was having a few problems.

    I replaced some parts about this before, including a screen crack with no problems.

    However, he began to refuse to start saying "out of battery CMOS, Press F1 to enter setup". Of course you would have to do this, set the date and time, except & restart only to get the same message. We have replaced the CMOS battery with a with the same serial number and now the laptop will not boot.

    It does one of two things.

    It is one) seems to turn, turn to the top disk & CD player, cooling fan is 100%, then flashes the POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.

    Or (b) turns on, turntable, does not turn up to cooling fan, POWER ON witness remains stable, no response from the keyboard or LCD.

    I re-assembled the laptop several times & can not find all the missing fittings or obvious signs of damage.

    The only thing I can think is that the motherboard has been damaged - somehow find replacements is delicate.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    (> It is a) appears to turn on, turn the disk & CD player, cooling fan goes to 100% and then flashes him

    POWER ON led once, twice by orange, and then green to 1/2 second intervals, with no response from the keyboard or LCD.
    Usually, if the voltage in abnormal feeding malfunctions when IN DC will be blinking orange.

    In my opinion, it looks like a problem with the motherboard :(
    Eventually, you will need to replace the mobo ;(

  • Equium A210 - replacing the CMOS battery possible?

    My Toshiba Satellite A210 - 1 4 seems to have a CMOS battery problem because it does not keep the BIOS settings.

    I bought a replacement battery and a/c mains adapter to remove the a/c power problems but the POST beaps and CMOS keeps a checksum error and once in the BIOS and save the settings, it starts successfully, but if the laptop restarts or is off this all over again. I've also updated the BIOS successfully is not of the BIOS chip. The only thing I can think is to replace the CMOS battery - is it possible?

    I read that some are soldered on? Would this laptop Toshiba service to replace the CMOS battery / audit failures - if so, how much would it cost, or someone else can do that the laptop is out of warranty.

    Advice please?

    Hi Emases2010,

    As I know some batteries are fixed/soldered to the motherboard and t is no substitute, but I think that only a laptop computer technician can give you a detailed response.

    Normally, you can load the CMOS battery if you leave the AC adapter plugged in overnight or in the best case 24 hours. After this, the battery must be fully charged.

  • MS200 HP all in one computer - replace the CMOS battery

    Hello

    Can anyone help with this please?

    Need to replace the battery CMOS but can't finy all information on how to access it.

    Can find information on how to access hard drive, memory, and how to remove the stand, but nothing on how to access the CMOS battery / motherboard. The rear panel does not seem to have clear access points to remove it.

    Thanks for your help!

    For the benefit of anyone with a similar problem, figured out how to remove the envelope which was really very simple (is always when you know how).

    To remove the Panel, you must first remove the stand. From there on, remove the cover on the back that conceals the hard drive. Remove the screws that hold the hard drive and a DVD burner in place.

    Slide the DVD drive, and then you can gently push the lid with a knife butter blunt or similar to push the housing into the slot of the dvd player . Once it begins to pull him out just gently work your way around the edge.

    Once the case is off, the CMOS battery is fairly easy to find.

  • Pavilion dv6 2170 clock problem after replacing the CMOS battery

    Hello world. Sorry for my bad likely English

    OK, so the problem started since I changed my laptop CMOS battery. and to be honest it wasn't whit any problem the clock when I replaced it but I if this may be the cause of another problem that later I figuered what the problem was because of the RAM.

    in any case, I changed the Rams and this problem has been resolved. I just set the clock of the BIOS and rebooted the system. After awhile I figuered that windows clock is not fair. I restarted again and saw the BIOS clock. It has been reset for 2009! even when the laptop battery and power supply are attached the BIOS and windows continues to change clock! I even changed my windows and I replaced the CMOS battery with the former, but nothing helped. It seems really strange, but I don't think it's maybe a hardware problem there a driver or something for the CMOS battery... need your help! Thank you!

    You mentioned that the BIOS has been reset for 2009? This means that there is a problem with the current or any leak and the BIOS has been "reset" back at the root of the plant. I'm afraid you have shorted something when you changed the battery not be grounded.

    Worst case is that there is physical damage to your motherboard and there is nothing you can do about it, probably broken a capacitor - who cannot hold a charge to prevent the reset of the BIOS clock.

    However, you can try this.

    Completely, unplug your computer, remove the laptop battery, etc... Then browse 'Guide' your computer for the "hard physical reset" for your CMOS. I don't know what it's like on a laptop, I only did it on desktop with riders. Be sure to follow the directions precisely.

    -Make sure you are properly grounded. touch the metal parts that is grouned before touching anything on your computer.
    -the hard reset should be done for at least 30 seconds, this ensures that the power is completely served the system. Then you can set this back.

    Try this a couple of times, first without removing the CMOS battery and 2nd time after remove CMOS battery and placing it in.

    Good luck.

    BTW, you can also try running without your new memories (if there is more than 1 stick, try them separately). In fact, I would probably try first before doing a hard reset CMOS. The reason why I didn't say earlier, it's because I have assumed that you already tried this.

  • Satellite Pro A40: location of the CMOS battery?

    is anyone the location of the cmos battery on the a40 sat pro that I need to change it.
    The laptop is a few years old, so I hesitate to send to the dealer for him as will be fairly high costs!

    Thank you

    I put t know exactly the place of the RTC battery, but you should see if you Remover keyboard and lid.
    To remove the RTC battery you need to disconnect the cable from the connector PJ8490 on the system board RTC battery and then Peel the insulators and remove the RTC battery.

    But note: When replacing the RTC battery, be sure to use genuine battery or spare batteries allowed by Toshiba. Battery wrong installation may cause a battery explosion, or other damage.

    PS: Just for the record: the RTC battery recharge takes about 8 hours

  • Does not start after replacing the cmos battery

    HP m8430f, Vista Home Premium.  Worked very well but sometimes had to restart using "pulsed" F10 (5 seconds) then wait 5 seconds, and then F5, then ENTER, F10, then ENTER.

    I suspected the CMOS battery, so I removed it.  He tested "fair."  Got a new CR2032.  He attached the test counter, so it's okay  "I WAITED ALL NIGHT BEFORE REPLACING.  But the computer does not restart.  I went through the steps above and still no luck.  What to do next?  Thank you, Joe

    FIXED!  I removed the battery (I had to remove the sound card to get in the first place to the battery).  I waved it around a little when you reinstall.  Now it's working.  What I've done, I have no idea, but it works now.  Sorry for the post, but I was desperate.  Joe

  • Portege M100 - how to replace the RTC battery?

    Hello, my Portege M100 RTC battery is flat. I managed to order one of the internet, but I can't locate. I disassemble almost every part of the computer, but if someone could just guide me and give the procedure to replace, that would be great. Thanks in advance!

    Hi friend

    It s easy to replace the RTC battery on your machine. I already did and I had no problem when replacing, I mean it's a bit difficult to find the batt. but I will give all that to my experience. ;)

    First look at the wireless lan card, West a slot under the slot lies the minipci wlan card. Near the wireless lan card slot is somewhat on the cover, this cover must be removed (quietly). The RTC battery is located in a white insulator, but before you peel this small battery, you must disconnect the battery from the motherboard. After unplugging it, simply lift the RTC and place a new.

    That's all, unfortunately I can't serve you with some photos, so you'll have to imagine yourself. ;)

    Good luck and welcome

    P.s.: If you feel uncomfortable by replacing the batt, then ask some tech to help you.

  • How to change the CMOS battery laptop toshiba satelite?

    Problem: need to remove password or reset. Could not get spent on start up

    Legal Preface: this is how I personally was able to do easily.

    I just did one of these (2400-S201) to see if I could give them a second life, and to see if it was so bad that
    ... This isn't.
    Don't forget, this laptop is older, but very worth to resurrect.

    1. remove the battery (side latch) and the hard drive. The only screw that she holds down is marked F - 4 on the cover. (look for the sign with a 2 "circle, which is the HD)
    Use the white tab to move that he left then upwards. It should move with little effort. Make sure not to lose the screw of the HD Panel.

    2. remove all screws F6 annotated low bezel with a screwdriver PT. 2 (of my account there was less than a 15)
    According to the screwdriver, there are moments where you have to press the a little screwdriver to get in contact with the wire. Just be careful not not to strip the Threading.

    3. remove the "B25" screw located near the radiator-fan of air. A little carefully take the hand and lift the bezel down enough to disconnect (about 1-2 inches from the surface of) the battery with the finger index and Hugo. Look at they way the battery is managed and sitting in the plastic clips.
    With the bottom semi-open, plug the battery replacement and re-seat below the white tablecloth and clips on the housing by the original.

    4. replace all screws (less than a ton).

    5. replace the hard drive, sliding first with the metal tab under the plastic case, left, then he endorsement to the right. Replace the Panel with the short screw of F - 4, a. Reinstall the battery.

    6. replace your car model with reception. If the receipt cannot be found, use it for store credit.

    If you want to test the battery, simply unplug and remove the battery for 30 minutes. Then he works with only the a/c adapter. If no CMOS screen appears, you are good to go.

    It looks a little complex, but it's really not I did one after a few barley appears in about 15 minutes.

  • 385ED can get in without replacing the cmos battery?

    I liked him, but it is time to move on. I had just put most of my files on the diskette, and then I got the error of date. Is there a way of? Thank you :-)

    The battery is any old watch type CR2032 you can find at the pharmacy or something.
    The replacement is as simple as out old battery, pealing out of it and tying tape yellow/black plastic on the + and - connectors to the appropriate places.

    I did it with a x 600.
    However, until I'm the battery, I managed to get it published by heating a little towards the top of the stack. I don't remember if I just left it in the machine while he was doing for a while, or if I took it out and put on something warm. Whatever it is, once it publishes (with or without a good battery), as long as it has power over the sector, the cmos doesn't reset.

  • Portege R100 - replace the CMOS battery

    Can someone point me in the right direction to get instructions on how to do it.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is not easy to remove the battery from the motherboard RTC! It s really complicated because you will need to disassemble the whole laptop in the right direction.
    As far as I know, you need to remove the keyboard and the bottom cover.

    But why would you remove the RTC battery?
    If the RTC battery is empty then you can reload again.
    The laptop must be connected to the power adapter and must be turned on for over 24 hours.
    That would recharge the battery of the CCF.
