It's pretty easy to replace the mb battery....1. Unplug power/open the case and look for the Silver "quarter sized" round battery near the area that your PCI devices are connected (ie. near the keyboard connection). 2. using a knife carefully pry it out on the "spring" side of the circle it is seated in. You wont lose any data on your hard drive; however, you will probably want to go into the BIOS (setup) by pushing the delete key (or whatever key gets you into SETUP and choose the "Default" settings for all pages (areas). Then, you should be good to go http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
