Pavilion zv5000: cmos battery location

I recently did a clean install of win7 XP and since then have had to reset the boot sequence.  After some research, I realized that the cmos was not keeping date/time, etc.  After you start through the process of recovery of the win7 os works find.  I downloaded the manual but have not been able to positively locate the cmos under the keyboard battery.  My laptop is a HP Pavilion zv5000 or zv5260us.  I would like advice as to its location, if it is welded to the and is replaceable?

Also, I would like to update the primary RAM of 256 to 1 GB.  The secondary was already running 1 GB.  Is this a possible upgrade?

Any help would be appreciated.

In fact, I used to own a very close model of one and can vouch that it can use 2 GB of DDR 800 SO - DIMM (first gen DDR). There is a slot under a door over there and the other is under the keyboard, which is not too difficult to remove it. Here is the Manual:

I don't see anything in the manual about the RTC battery or its location which leads me to believe it is soldered to the motherboard.

    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

  • HP Pavilion zv5000 recharge the battery when the

    I have a Pavilion ZV5000 with XP pro sp3.  The battery is new.  The CC has been replaced.  Here are the symptoms:

    Battery recharge when the laptop is turned off.

    The laptop will boot and work if she is only connected to the adapter current (without battery)

    The laptop will boot and work if the battery is installed.

    The laptop's battery and it not load if the battery is installed and the AC adapter is plugged in.

    It indicates the charging for about 3 seconds light then go to the battery power.

    I installed the update to the bios, but that has not solved the problem.

    Please if there is a real solution (meaning don't tell me to buy a new laptop) let me know.  I looked all over the internet and this seems to be a common problem but was not able to find a good solution.

    Its possible the adapter has insufficient wattage (power) to charge the battery and run the notebook at the same time.

    You must take the RTC battery and the wire stuck on it, of the Board of Directors:

    Remove the battery.

    2. Use your finger or a flat blade tool to lift the edge of the cover of the accessory and remove it.
    3. Unplug the cable from the system board RTC battery.
    4. 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

    1. Slide the RTC battery in the clip integrated into base housing.
    2. Reconnect the cable to RTC battery to the system board.
    3. The accessory cover on the housing of the base of the toes.

  • 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.

  • Detected CMOS battery failure

    If after system start it shows "the firmware has detected a CMOS battery failure. Press Enter to continue. "It happens every day when the computer is idle.  When the computer is used, no problem.  But I'm tired to reset the date/time and disconnect the power.

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you have a desktop PC and then unplug the power and remove the left side cover, locate the size of coin lithium battery and replace it with another identical, available from supermarkets, chemists and computer for less than $5.00 stores, if you have a laptop that is a little more difficult, take a look at this you tube video :-

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=cg_wvp1YdSI

    Make sure you get an identical, the height may vary as well as the voltage.

    You will need to set the date and time to the seed first.

  • 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
