Been looking for the CMOS battery for hours. Not on www.insidemylaptop.com. or www.Ifixit.com Not on ASUS website, not on YouTube. Ifixit had a nice disassembly tutorial that does not mention the CMOS battery at all. I did find a pic online of the CMOS cable, which leads into the touchscreen case, which shows no screws. HELP!!!!, please. |

Finally, after first getting misinformation from ASUS about the CMOS battery being on the back side of the motherboard (it wasn't), then a refusal to advise (because I would have been "modifying" it and they don't support that), then insisting I ship a laptop 3+ years out of warranty to a service center on the east coast to be checked and repaired, I finally got some info from a kind ASUS tech who advised that - he didn't know where it was, but he presumed that it is fed by the main battery somehow. I've been waiting a few days to let all the stress over this thing drain out of me before I attempted a re-assemble, which I wouldn't have had to do if ASUS had just given me the correct info in the first place, and I'm not even sure that the info is correct. I'll find out after I reassemble it and install a new SSD and it then works!
