Predator G3-710 CMOS Battery Terminal Broken
Hi all,
My desktop stopped being able to boot properly and after doing a lot of troubleshooting I was told to try changing the CMOS battery. That ended up being incredibly difficult as the battery refused to "pop" out, no matter how much finesse I used on the latch with a variety of different tools. I was eventually able to force the battery out and replace it with a new one but am still having the same issue of my BIOS not being configured properly.
My unit is unfortunately out of warranty and I'm wondering what's a good way to address this. Is it very difficult to replace the CMOS battery terminal? Will it cost much to have Acer repair it? Can I throw another mobo in there instead?
Thanks in advance.
