You need to be very careful about static electricity discharge when
working inside a computer case.
Leaving the CPU plugged in while turned off and grounding your hand to
the power supply's case each time before you touch other internal
electronics is a good approach.

After replacing CMOS battery the sound volume coming through speakers
connected to computer seems to have returned to normal. Does this make
sense? Even if it doesn't, I'll take it. When I changed the battery it was
the first time I ever took cover off the computer. I didn't notice any
ghosts

I've never seen a BIOS that had audio volume. Maybe a switch to disable the
on-board audio.

Just an advice on the side. I only open my computer to do whatever,
replace the CMOS battery, replace HD, etc
starting on a Sunday that I am free with my time, starting at 8 AM.
Prior to that I used to start after work in the
evening and spent the whole night struggling with it. No longer...
It did take awhile and getting the battery out wasn't easy. Manual
mentioned using a plastic screwdriver; maybe this is something I should get
for a next time. Now that I know how to open cover, that should be quicker
next time.
