Re: Where is the CMOS battery in Toshiba NB100?

Hi guys,.

I disassembled my nb100 and have been to look at the motherboard for centuries, trying to find the CMOS battery.
Basically, my netbook is not in the bios, it is just stuck on the Toshiba start screen.
so I thought I would try to remove the cmos battery to see if that could fix the problem.

So if someone could please tell me where I could the cmos battery?

> Basically my netbook will not go into the bios, it remains just stuck on the home screen Toshiba.
> so I thought I would try to remove the cmos battery too see if that would solve the problem.

I doubt that this will help you solve this problem
First and foremost the CMOS is soldered to the motherboard (in most cases).
I think there must be a problem with a motherboard if the laptop is unable to pass the POST (power on self test).
Basically, all that might be affected; RAM, etc.

I think you should check the RAM first, if that is not enough, then an ASP should try to reflash the BIOS, otherwise the motherboard needs to be replaced.

    Hello

    Why, you want to know where is the CMOS battery? You want to exchange it?

    I think this question can anybody answer here because it s only a user to user forum. Never saw here authorized technicians or anyone from Toshiba.

    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. ;)

  • NEED TO RESET THE BIOS PASSWORD WHERE IS THE CMOS BATTERY?

    I RECENTLY BOUGHT A PXI USED WITH A CONTROLLER OF 8156B 1000 B, BUT THE BIOS IS PASSWORD PROTECTED AND I WOULD INSTALL ANOTHER OPERATING SYSTEM AND BEST USB FUNCTION. CAN ANYONE HELP? WHERE IS THE BIOS BATTERY?

    Hi groundflight5150,

    I enclose a link below for the user manual for series 8150B controllers.  I don't think that the BIOS is protected by default, so you may want to contact the person you bought it from to know what is the password.  However, there is information contained in the manual on how to remove the CMOS contents, then this might help.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

    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

  • W530 does not illuminate when the CMOS battery is connected

    Problem:

    I can't get my laptop to start (it blinks just 3 times battery icon, without to need laptop power (won't start even fan)) unless I disconnect CMOS battery, external battery and power first. Disconnected battery and CMOS battery, I can get the computer started connecting the AC (the computer then starts immediately without the need to press the powerbutton). Once the computer has booted, everything works fine (get warnings during start-up due to removed CMOS battery and must adjust date/timesettings every time in the operating system) and it is possible to restart without problems. I tried the following:

    Attempted fixes:

    (1) replace the CMOS battery and checked the required voltage is present using the multimeter

    (2) delete all memory modules. Has not made a difference, because it never reaches the verification of memory (where it would beep several times due to lack of memory) unless CMOS has been reset.

    (3) update BIOS of 2.57 to 2.63 without change

    (4) by pressing the button of power 10 times and then maintained for 30 seconds did nothing.

    I'm out of ideas after many hours of web browsing, so any help will be greatly appreciated.

  • Did I lose my settings RAID if I remove the CMOS BATTERY?

    Server Dell Poweredge 1600.

    My server running, but I get no message, no video and no beeps because a disabled person the speaker in the BIOS.

    I've heard to see if the CMOS battery is dead, but we have important things that has not been saved to disk.

    I'm not an expert on server but I doubt that disabling the speaker in the BIOS, if these options are still possible, stop a post and video output. I do not see how a dead cmos battery stop post I have an iomega Server I play with dead circuits RTC so cannot keep time and I started successfully without cmos battery installed. So I would say there is something else with your hardware, you need to find flaws...

    As a first step, I would take the minimum system needed to post (2 DIMM, 1 CPU and none of the cards or HARD drive) and see if you can access the BIOS. Then put back one item at a time in the system and get to see if you can get into the BIOS with each addition... The issue that causes post failure corresponds to the faulty but if cannot post a minimum configuration, it may be the power supply, dimm or mobo, cpu...

    I also understand that the RAID configuration is actually stored as metadata on the HDD of the themselves, while the RAID card to know these specific HDD are inserted into the slots. As the RAID metadata is at the disk themselves, they can be moved to another (compatible) system where the HARD drive would be considered a foreign configuration. After you import the foreign configuration, you will have access to your data.

    But I haven't played with moving HARD drive between the RAID cards in other systems, so don't know the intricacies of the compatibility. If something is not that you can always loose DataUn so do not have a backup is to ask for trouble...

    (So now I should listen to my own words and go make a backup now )

  • 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 ;(

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

    Two questions, if I could.

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.
