Thanks for sharing; I was only interested in replacing the CMOS battery and it was very, very tedious for my notebook- the same as your video - I used a exact knife to remove the wrapping from the CMOS battery and electricians tape when reassembled together. I don't ever want to replace a CMOS battery on a laptop again in my life.
My first attempt using a "naked" CR2032 failed (no or bad contact). Then I ordered a CR2032 having solder tabs, which is much easier to connect. I measured the current drawn by the CMOS RAM: 3.7uA. Given a nominal CR2032 capacity of 210mAh results in a theoretical lifetime of 6.5 years. The original CR2032 I replaced lived much longer. Guess it is being trickle charged whenever the computer is on.
Works! Fairly simple to do - just remember to take out the 4 very small screws at the back before you take off the keyboard. That part wasn't shown on this video.
Some idiot probably taught a noob to do it, the noob became a pro, then the pro taught everyone else to do it, and to this day no one knows exactly why they do it.
If you manhandled my laptop like that I would puke on the floor.I don't think I could watch it be done. If you touched my screen with your finger, i'd jump over the counter.

You forgot to mention to remove the 4 screws behind the laptop battery. I almost broke my keyboard following your instructions.
Same here
Short and clear. Thanks!
I have also ASUS eee PC seashell series but it had different steps to open the case, more screws and also cmos battery was in different place.

I'd recommend using electrical tape instead then using a shrink wrap sleeve over it.
The color looks very cute.
nice , but I would recommend you to check the wire connection with a multi-meter before closing the case , and be on the safe side !
is the battery a cr2032 like most motherboard cmos batteries?
yes, they are the same battery
Great tutorial! Disgusting ASUS making it IMPOSSIBLE for a single (mortal) user to replace Eeepc's battery.
I need to know if you used a standard battery or a rechargeable one...
My Asus eee pc 1001HA seems to have a rechargeable CMOS button battery: ml1220
Looks simple enough - will give it a go & see what happens - stay tuned

@@farnthboy thanks man. Good looks
Thanks it’s works!
well. thanks for comment :)
What's the purpose of taking out the RAM?
Some idiot probably taught a noob to do it, the noob became a pro, then the pro taught everyone else to do it, and to this day no one knows exactly why they do it.
So do I really need to remove the RAM or not?
@@vincentliew72 in 99.99% of the cases, no. I've never come across a screw under the ram slot so far.
Nice tutorial but I still have problems with date and hour. Do you know if I have to config anything else? Thanks
Just try to install new one with built in cable
Well, some older pchas an longer cable, so this procrdure will work, i think...
CMOS battery was bad..thanks
Thanks much
nice, i try to replace cmos battery.
Done quickly 😄
ขอบคุณ thank

Stupid design. Should be behind lid like extra ram often is. Easy safe access.
Buy new one with wire attaching is more safety.

REMOVE 4 SCREWS BEHIND BATTERY BEFORE REMOVING KEYBOARD.
hit the M key .... fast !
