It has been sitting unused at my parent's place for 7 of those 8 years.<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Nov 14, 2021 at 1:23 PM Steve Litt via PLUG-discuss <<a href="mailto:plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org">plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Michael via PLUG-discuss said on Sun, 14 Nov 2021 12:47:09 -0500<br>

Seriously, Mike, if you have the slightest suspicion that your CMOS<br>
battery is causing trouble with your computer, and the battery is more<br>
than 1 year old (and remember, it could have been several months old if<br>
you bought the computer new, several years old if you bought it used),<br>
why not just spend five bucks for a new one, and for sure eliminate a<br>
possible source of otherwise hard to diagnose intermittence?<br>
