    Dear Group,

    I have a Kobal Nexus/Clevo M860tU that appears to have need of a new BIOS battery. The symptoms are that my laptop has turned into a time machine with the date and time changing wildly from August 2008 to Septemer 2063.

    Everything else (other than my graphics card....see another query here) are running smoothly.

    So, can anyone provide a link to or explain just how one does this operation? Items needed like thermal paste (?) &c. I do not know anything about computers but am use to working on dmall delicate things.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks!
