CQ60: cmos

I have my laptop for years. Recently, the time is not correct. Need to update manually. Internet Google, says that the problem may be connected to the CMOS battery.

Any idea?

According to me, cleaning with compressed air without opening the laptop share would be a good thing. Given the age of the computer, the temperatures are not at all something to be afraid of.

  • PC Pavilion laptop: no sound on Pavilion g6 after installing the new battery CMOS

    I have a Pavilion g6z - 1 d 00 CTO Notebook PC, model A2F43AV number.  It came with Windows 7 Home Premium, and I upgraded the operating system to Windows 7 Pro (64 bit).

    The problem is that I did not sound, either through headphones or the speakers even if the Volume is set at 55. I first noticed the audio problem after replacing the CMOS battery, as the laptop is 4 years old and he gave me intermittent wireless connectivity problems.  After installing the new battery CMOS, I noticed the wireless driver was missing and downloaded/installed.  Everything was fine except the audio.  Then I reset the BIOS but nothing there as the BIOS version is v.49, and it is the most recent.

    I have also downloaded/installed the driver audio and rebooted the PC.  Still, there is no noise.

    Finally, I have checked the audio drivers and the reporting system they work without any problem.

    What should I do next?

  • 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 ;(

  • Portege M750 - replacing the CMOS (RTC) battery

    Hello world

    If someone can share with me
    -where to find this battery
    -is normal around the battery and if you can tell me the number of battery?

    Thank you

    Normally, the RTC battery in these models are rechargeable.
    If not already done, please leave the unit on for the night (not disable, not extended, not sleep - but ON) and see if the problem is resolved.

    I think the accusation-description/also the RTC battery is mentioned in your user manual.

  • Resetting CMOS of Satelite Z930-14F

    Hello!

    I would like to ask how can I reset the bios by the reset CMOS battery mode because it won't work with update.exe bios feeding for download in the section driver Toshiba.
    I tried with windows 7 and it did not work.
    I learned that the Cmos battery is this orange thing stuck on the motherboard.

    The reason why I want to do is because I got my bios possibly without password for awhile and I'm afraid that someone might be infected with a virus.

    A general question: could an infected organ my bios or bios load sound on my computer my operating system and infect it too or not?

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Kind regards
    Karl

    > I would like to ask how can I reset the bios by the clear CMOS battery mode
    Something like this isn't possible.
    Do not remove the CMOS battery. This may affect the functionality of your laptop and can damage the motherboard

    > The reason why I want to do is because I got my bios possibly without password for awhile and I'm afraid that someone might be infected with a virus.

    Sorry mate but I really don t understand this fear. Don t worry!

    > A general question: could an infected organ my bios or bios load sound on my computer my operating system and infect it too or not?
    I can't imagine that something like that might be possible

  • Battery CMOS for Equium L40

    My CMOS battery is dead, can someone tell where I can buy a replacement one.

    Thank you

    Adrian

    Hello

    I'm afraid the RTC battery is soldered to the motherboard of Mr. Don t think you could easily remove it.

    What you can do is to charge the battery.
    To the RTC battery successfully, the main battery and the AC adapter must be connected to the laptop. In addition, the laptop must be turned on for about 18-20 hours.

    By the way: it s a NiMH RTC battery supports the ability of voltage and output 3V 14mAh

  • Need to find the cmos on Satellite Pro 2100 battery

    I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

    The brand is a Satellite Pro SP2100, model PS210E006P9-EN number, but I can't find this brand/model on the Toshiba site. The closest I can find is Satellite 2400-103, part number: PS240 - T 014, 1, that seems identical.

    I tried to use the identify tool of Toshiba to detect what is the laptop, but that fails to provide results.

    I also need to find out what food is for this unit as the current is defective and exposed wires.

    The adapter of current with her is PA3201U-1ACA, the problem is that this card has another card on the end to fit the power plug to the back of the laptop. The connector at the end of PA3201U is too thin to fit.

    Hello

    This laptop is very old and the name of this machine is: Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E

    > I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

    Usually the CMOS battery can be charged. You must connect the power adapter and the laptop must be powered for about 12-14 hours.

  • Portege A100 - where is the CMOS battery?

    Thank you in advance.

    Regarding your question, you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. They can answer any technical questions and also to exchange the battery for you. ;)

    Hi all

    I need to change the battery CMOS of my G20-106. Is this possible without having to disassemble the whole laptop? Where is the battery? Thank you for your help.

    Best regards

    unclescrooge

    Hello

    No, as I know it is not possible to do
    As far as I know the CMOS is welded somewhere on the motherboard and you would need to disassemble the whole laptop. This can be really, really painful procedure.

    But why do you want to remove the battery?
    The CMOS battery is charged and it should be possible to load it again.
