Jacob and All,
Is there another battery in the computer besides the MOS/BIOS settings
battery that's mounted on the
motherboard? I'm asking about whatever battery/batteries that might die
and make the machine useless until replaced.
How do I get the specs of the motherboard and find out what model etc.
it is?
Thanks,

If so, the only real way is to either take the physical battery out of the
machine, or to look up the specs of the motherboard on the internet, but
anyway...
Stay well
