Help for Satellite Pro M10 RTC CMOS battery replacement
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 PS630E-G206C-FR
Removing the main battery causes a failure message from RTC battery from the beginning to the top and loss of CMOS date/time.
I tried to charge my main battery in full and then leave the machine in charge while it is turned on (I said it is a method for the CMOS battery)-without any result.
.
My questions: do I have to replace the RTC battery (ie: is it refillable welded or a CR2032 battery shows or similar).
If a specific type, the best source?
And also, where it is (I'm comfortable with disassemble my laptop having replaced the LCD cable already)
Thank you
DavidHi David
Do you need help? What you mean exactly, step by step disassembly procedure? Maintenance manuals are not public documents and I'm really interested if anyone can offer assistance to you.
When you want to swap the portable RTC battery almost entire must be dismantled. Believe me that is not the procedure of 10 steps and to do something like this, you need the disassembly instructions. I recommend you to check how it will be service charges because that when they disassemble the laptop they can clean at the same time and the laptop will be as good as new.
If you want to do it yourself, it is very important to use authorized by Toshiba replacement batteries or real. Battery wrong installation may cause a battery explosion, or other damage.
Please be careful about this.

Satellite A50 cmos battery replacement
Hi, does anyone know the bios battery where satellite A50 series? mine need to replace soon.
Hi Chang
Replacing the CMOS battery on laptops is not as easy as on the desktop. If you want to do it alone you have to disassemble the laptop and you should not do if you have no experience with it. Before do you it alone, please contact your local dealer or service and ask how much the replacement costs.
Believe me, that a small mistake may be responsible that unity don t start anymore, and then you can have a real problem. If you want to do it alone and at your own risk poster again.

Hello
You must take the RTC battery and the wire stuck on it, of the Board of Directors:
Withdrawal of the real-time clock battery
Before you start: follow all precautionswhen removing and replacing components.
Remove the battery.
- Loosen the six screws Phillips P1 in captivity which fix the accessory cover to the bottom of the laptop.
- Use your finger or a flat blade tool to lift the edge of the cover of the accessory and remove it.
- Unplug the cable from the system board RTC battery.
- At the same time press the clip that keeps the RTC battery at the base, slide the RTC battery forward. The RTC battery is also attached to the motherboard with double-sided tape.
The real-time clock battery change
- Slide the RTC battery in the clip integrated into base housing.
- Reconnect the cable to RTC battery to the system board.
- The accessory cover on the housing of the base of the toes.
- Tighten the 6 Phillips head screw P1 in captivity.
Kind regards

Presario 2111 cmos battery replacement
I was trying to find the battery type and the location of the RTC (CMOS BIOS) battery that is used in the Compaq Presario 2111EA laptop, as the User Guide and the maintenance manual does not mention the battery or how to replace it.
Hello
I disassembled the laptop and find the CMOS battery on the underside of the motherboard.
It was a normal Maxell CR1220, 3v lithium (like a watch battery) button which are clips in a white plastic stand. I ordered a few 40mAh ability with a life until 2018 for some books.
I would have thought that a rechargeable type Lithium-ion would have been used instead of the non-rechargeable type. It is a pity that was not the result of the form of the Mini PCI door to accommodate the change the battery because it is located near the door on the bottom of the laptop. It would have been too easy and owners could change the battery themselves without having to disassemble the laptop to change a battery.
It was for sound technical reasons.
Thanks much for the reply

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.

Windows Activation failed after the replacement CMOS battery
I upgraded my computer (HP Pavilion m7570n) from Windows XP to Windows 7 Pro (64), with the exception of a few problems earlier with the installation of MSE, it works well and much faster than Windows XP, has never had a problem starting up.
Since the machine is approximately 8 years and the CMOS battery has never been replaced, I thought that it might be justified to replace. I did, quickly to avoid the CMOS to discharge. But now, whenever I start my computer, I get a message that my Windows 7 Pro is not a genuine copy and it requires a new activation process, which when I try it doesn't work. I entered the real code in the package of Windows 7 Edition Home Premium, the same code that I used to own initial installation, I did the upgrade.
Everything seems to work fine, except the notification of activation and the non-genuine warning.
Any idea on how to get this problem resolved?
Any help will be appreciated
Try the phone activation:

Reconstruction of recent software with HARD drive internal extra (March 2011) under Windows XP/Linux dual-boot installation worked fine. CD/DVD RW drive, started giving errors so replaced cyclic redundancy check drive a week ago. All still OK. Change of electricity supplied and increases energy use conciousness off the machine to the outlet of the overnight after normal shut down. Machine will not re-start not in the morning. Not load BIOS; all lights came briefly and then die after 3-4 seconds with power still led on. You can get a similar effect by plugging the keyboard into the PS2 Mouse Jack I did once!
After 20 minutes or so try all kinds of things managed to boot from the CD of Linux. Shut down/restarted and everything is fine so I don't switch off at the wall. Also seems to be OK after brief power off for 5-10 seconds but the problem persists with any long disconnection. It seems that after 10 to 15 minutes from power-on and 2-3 attempts to restart, BIOS comes up and all is well, but he stopped in the middle of a start of Windows or Linux on a couple of occasions.
Am I right in thinking the problem might be the result of a dead CMOS battery? The reason that I ask is that the clock seems to keep time OK and there is no apparent problem with the BIOS once it loads.
Any help/advice would be much appreciated. New config info below.

I don't have all the answers so I went forward with replacing the CMOS battery, but that did not help. The problem is also obvious if I turn it off and leave it for an hour or more before trying to restart even if I do not unplug the wall plug. It seems to take about 15-20 will start again before it fires. I would be really grateful for any clues as to what is wrong.

OK, guys. I finally solved the problem.
After you have calculated the power needed for the config curent, I discovered that, using various ways to estimate, he walked between 321W - 383W. It was pretty weird that the only thing I added was a HARD drive and a memory stick and the wisdom of the other guys on this forum, it's that there is a lot of capacity within the factory installed power of 250W. Yes and here's the rub: the modern replacement devices usually have upgraded capabilities and use more power. And so when I replaced the drive CD/DVD RW added a few watts, as the sectoral approach of the floppy drive. It appears also that the optical USB mouse needs more juice than the good old PS2.
I just installed a new 450W PSU Powercool and Bingo! The processor is faster, too.
Hope that my pain and trauma saves someone else having to suffer the same.

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?

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.

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

You must mark the post as answered, and then you can assign points to other users.

Satellite L775-13D - battery replacement problem
My battery is currently saying "consider replacing your battery" because it does not load completely. Had the laptop a little over 2 years so I guess that a battery replacement is necessary.
Problem is I can't find a compatible, or I do something wrong?
One, I bought, the site made it clear that it was for my model laptop, however when I plugged it the battery orange flash light upwards and the laptop would not turn on. I loaded a night or more and same thing.Other than I bought, new website clearly stated it was for my model of laptop and again made the same thing as above.
Is there something I should do that I didn't do or do I just not had much luck with batteries that I bought?
Laptop PC battery is not easy to return ' cos of Royal Mail restrictions so any help would be appreciated.> Problem is I can't find a compatible, or I do something wrong?
Why not? When you remove battery right you will find part number. All you need to do is order a new following this part number. And of course I recommend buying the original Toshiba battery and not a cheap no. product name.By the way: follow batteries are listed as compatible
