    Sorry for the half of year late answer, i found an unopened 3v 2032 battery. 

    How do i open to replace the broken with the new one?

    If it's the CMOS battery, the old one typically is in a mount and you just pry up one edge to get it out, then reverse that to install. If the battery on your motherboard is soldered in (pretty rare) you'll want to unsolder the old one and solder in a mount for the new one.

    It worked! It was a 2032 3v battery and to replace it wasn't any problem. Now it is alive. :D
