cmos battery

[Michael]

Lovely.... my computer Is a swall computer (7"x7") and I can't even see the
battery.

Even lovelier: the board is screwed in tightly and I can't get the board
off to access the battery. I'll take it somewhere and let someone else
worry about it. On a positive note the box is about 8 years old and the
battery is only rated for 3 if it isn't used. It has been sitting unused at
my parent's place for 7 of those 8 years.
