This machine doesn’t rely on a CMOS battery judging from the [guide|51568|teardown]. These devices typically rely on a small reserve capacitor near the Flash ROM or have a dedicated battery line to do the job the CMOS battery would normally be used for.
-
If you want to get the CMOS RAM to save again, you will either need to find the capacitor(s) that provide power or replace the battery.

If you want to get the CMOS RAM to save again, you will either need to find the capacitor(s) that provide power to the CMOS RAM, or replace the battery.
That being said, the capacitor is usually fine and it’s typically due to a older battery. However, you may as well double check the board and 100% rule it out.
This machine doesn’t rely on a CMOS battery judging from the [guide|51568|teardown]. These typically rely on a small reserve capacitor for memory retention with a dedicated line from the battery to power the capacitor to save the CMOS RAM contents. You will need to replace the primary battery or board capacitor.
