Compaq CMOS Battery: 2009
The CMOS battery in my Compaq 3000 laptop computer is dead This means that the system forgets the BIOS configuration settings each time you turn it off. So, I am eager to replace this battery.
However, I’ve never done this before in a laptop computer. So I thought I’d track the effort here so that others might learn as well, from my learning.
Please note that this is not the same computer as the Compaq R-3000 laptop, that I describe here, and whose battery also went dead. Both the 3000 and the R-3000 computers require new CMOS batteries. Just my luck, ‘eh?
I’ll work this one as time permits. So, do stand by.

08:02 PM: Before embarking on this project, I must clear out a big, open space upon which I can disassemble the laptop. Massive clutter rules all my work spaces right now. But perhaps as part of the household organization, 2009 project, I’ll get all that under control.
