Hi all, I need to clear the CMOS on an old Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop. It has no jumper pins, and the CMOS battery is soldered to the board, it does not post. Can I clear the CMOS by shorting the battery, or do you recommend another way? Thanks.

At least this seems to be the case for mine, according to it's pdf. If this is the case should i use both or is one enough?

Hello, I've managed to get myself a nice and cute MS-DOS laptop from somewhere around the early 90s or late 80s, unfortunately as someone would expect, the CMOS battery is dead, and the worst part? The laptop does not remember CMOS values even if plugged in at all times!!!! And the even worst...

Hi, I've had this issue for years now but seems to be getting worse. Basically out of the blue one day my computer stopped turning on normally and begun this loop of booting, lasting anywhere from 2 to 20 seconds and then shutting down and repeating. The strange thing was that if i let it...
