Re: How do I change the CMOS in Toshiba Qosmio G35-AV600?
It's #15 - page 02 - lower half of upper left quadrant. I tend to think of
it as a real world version of "where in the laptop is CMOS battery." It's a
challengs and a nice change of pace from the monotony of network
administration.
The PC cost over $2000 new and would still run pretty damned fast - only it
needs a $5 battery. So, I could save (or scrap) a $2,000 laptop. Sounds
like a challenge to me.....
The $64,000 question is ... "Why does a PC company hide a $5 battery in the
center of the laptop instead of placing it alongside the battery that powers
the laptop - knowing all along that it may need to be replaced?"
