Where is the CMOS Battery located on this board?

Hi there,

I've been having an issue recently where the laptop will suddenly shut off after a couple of minutes. The laptop when reconnected to power will then turn on with a black screen and will eventually display a CMOS reset on the display before booting into windows again. The board is stuck in some sort of loop and I was hoping a new CMOS battery would fix the issue.

I opened the laptop and couldn't locate the CMOS battery on the motherboard of the laptop. I presume the CMOS battery is embedded inside the main battery but I've replaced the battery and the issue still persists. Please reach out!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Can you confirm that exact model of the laptop? I suspect you are correct with regard to the CMOS battery being tied to the main battery, but there are so many variants of some of these PCs I always want to confirm.

@flannelist The model I believe to be the 15-cx0000 version.
