    Hi guys,

    I own a U31JG-RX092V Laptop, which I've had just over 2 months. Recently, after a quick attempt to use the BIOS to load to another disk, the laptop decided it was time to die.

    The fan stopped spinning, and the laptop now turns on, spins up hard-drive, powers up peripherals or whatever it can do, and does nothing on screen, the disc does not have any activity.

    I'm looking for suggestions for help, and I think the most likely way to fix this would be to reset the CMOS battery, but there's no decent information on how to do this with this specific laptop, if someone can advise me how, I'd be really appreciative. I've done the general troubleshooting (AC Power/Battery, removing RAM, swapping disks etc.) to no avail.

    Thanks!

    - Brittany
