Dear Community,

i have a problem my desktop aspire x1700 does not memory the date any more. I guess the batterie is broken. Who knows where i will find the batterie on the board and if its difficult to replace it??

Hello Maveric, the CMOS battery is not that hard to replace but at the same time you want someone who knows what they are doing. you may damage the board if you do not know what you are doing. I would say watch a youtube video first and watch some people remove the CMOS battery and see if it is something you are up for. Thankfully most local techs may not charge you allot anyways. Wish you all the best in the future repair attempt.
