    I have a 3003LCI that won't boot up. Tore in apart and this is what's going on disassembled it and found a buzzing was coming from an area next to the processor. It has an aluminum-cooling block over a round plate that looked like a watch battery. It was soldered in so it wasn't removable like a battery.
    I'm not sure what it is or if it's repairable. Any ideas. It's out of warranty.
    Thanks
