Failures See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Your battery is dead. On the UNIX PC motherboard there is a 3.0 VDC lithium battery which keeps the real-time clock operating. Unfortunately, the battery is soldered to the motherboard in most cases. It's either the round cylindrical canister type, or more commonly the flat disc-shaped battery. A suitable replacement can be purchased at Radio Shack (BR-2325), but you'll need to get the disc battery holder. If you desolder the battery from the motherboard, solder in the holder, future replacement of this battery will be much simpler. If you are nervous about touching a soldering iron to your precious machine, ASCRC will do it for you (see above). User Contributions:Top Document: comp.sys.3b1 FAQ part2 Previous Document: 6.3.
