I am trying to locate the CMOS battery in my grand daughters Aspire AX1700/Veriton X270 desktop .. What does it look like and approximately where is it located on the mother board. It is not the usual big silver waffer battery

    no CMOS battery but just clear CMOS jumper near the 2 ram slots.

    it's in the upper side, near the white unlock ram leaf.

    If the PC is shut down, the Bios clock has to be reset everytime it is booted again . Other then that the PC seems to be running Ok. If I clear the Bios, will doing this keep the clock settings ? I will make a note of the current settings before I clear it .. so that I can reset them to what they were ..

    Thank you for your help ..

    Clearing the CMOS will not take date/time settings.
