the battery that would affect time is located on the... _______________ ?

and all I have to do is take it out, go to Radio Shack with it, and get the same and put it back in? T/F
 
This a compi question or a broken watch question?

If its a compi question, you don't want to remove it...just look at the numbers on it and buy a new one. It should be on the Mobo itself. Usually fairrly close to the processor as I recall.

If its a watch battery...take the whole watch to Radio Scrap and let'em do all the work :D
 
It is on the motherboard, if it is replaceable it should look like small chromed coin or like a really small D type battery.

Replace with an identical one and you're set.

You'd prefer looking like an idjit in front of your children, instead of complete strangers who may never see you again? Sounds (il)logical to me. :lol2:

Most motherboards that have a replaceable CMOS battery use a CR2032. All our button cell batteries (including the CR2032) are $3.19, which comes out to $3.42 after sales tax in Atascadero, CA. I've sold enough of them to have the after-tax price memorized.
