If your Midas Pro 2C Console is producing a screen reading “Operating System Not Found” you may need to replace your CMOS battery. If you are performing the recommended maintenance of replacing it every 3 years, use this guide to replace the CMOS battery.
The CMOS battery is a small battery that allows the computer in the console to remember settings like time and date, and boot sequence order.
