Battery replacement, cleared CMOS and PC won't work

[Miroslav Mukarev]

Hi there folks,

so yesterday, I decided to replace my BIOS battery as well clearing my CMOS.
I took all the precautions needed, turned the PC down, turned the PS button off, then i took the battery out, cleared the CMOS, waited 5 minutes, put the battery back on, turned the PC on and it didn't show any vital signs.
I used a static band as well, so my guess would be, that there wasn't any static discharge and there is no chance that something went on short ciruit.
I did all that over and over again, waited over an hour before placing the battery back on and still nothing.

I guess the problem is the PS, it is a Xilence SPS- 1000W R2 ( an old version of the Sps-1000 R3), but don't know exactly what it would be.
The computer worked very well before I did that.

Give me some Tips please.

Thanks in advance.

Yours Sincerely,
Miro.

well, it is a bit complicated, becouse i have a MSI GD55 mobo and the Jumper is actually 2 pins that when u connect themselves together it clears your CMOS, if leave them open, it saves the CMOS.

Updates:

I just did the Paper Clip test, abd everything works fine. So the problem is the Jumper. maywbe i didn't connect then both propperly in order to cler the CMOSM. what do you think?

Omg i want to kill myself, with over 5 hours testing and trying to figure out why the pc didn't work... it was the the whole time, apparently i put it the wrong way in.
