Wish i knew this 10 years ago!!! Thanks again Carey.
Dang! Wished I had thought of changeing out that battery back in 2009, my dad owned the same computer and ended up getting a new one after it died.
cool video, uncle carey.
so good video
I've been working on PC's since I was old enough to hold a screwdriver and I would've NEVER thought the BIOS battery could cause a motherboard not to start. Insane that a company with the reputation like Compaq (we all know it's absolutely wonderful – lol) would use a board with that "feature." Also, how many people watching this video remember pci dial-up modems?
It pays to have a small stock of those batteries for such eventualities.
Managed to pick up a Z77 Mini ITX board on eBay for £23 which was listed as faulty. New CR2032 and it was working just fine. 🙂
GREAT video!!!! simple easy fix.hundred thumbs up!
Love those older computers they just seemed more robust in design and it always felt like you where getting valve for your money .
Carey has really stepped up his editing and video quality. Good job!
Hehehe interesting. I've never come across a motherboard, that will not start up with dead battery. Thanks for the info =)
thanks a lot.
these videos always helpful
2007 and that still had a Pentium 4? I thought Pentium 4 CPUs were phased out around 2005/2006?
Just this weekend I had an interesting one. Wouldn't boot at all. It took me about half an hour before I realized I made a newbie mistake…. The CMOS jumper had been placed, and left, in the 'clear' position. Once I put it back, machine booted with no problems.
These are my favourite Carey videos -I would like to see more of this instructional and entertaining repair content .
Carey, I've always wondered why mobo manufactures can't do away with that coin battery for the bios. Can't some kind of flash memory be used instead?
WOW,Carey I never heard a battery can course a computer to malfunction,is it all motherboards
Thanks again
Holy crap! So easy, so simple. Damn, thanks Carey.
Seeing the Presario brings back memory of supporting Compaq computers.
Interesting, thanks for the video, I have never seen this before that the CMOS battery being dead would cause the system not to turn on…
Thanks for the info. Very useful.
