- I've got a Mod30, which recently has started booting up
- with a: "161 Set time and date." and a square clock being
- displayed on the screen.
-
- My guess, the battery that keeps the time current has died.
- So I open the PS/2 up and inside the only battery that I
- can see underneath all the dust is a fat yellow cylindrical
- sucker about an inch long attached to the daughter-board.
- There is a warning pasted on the daughter board not to
- try to recharge the battery.
-
- So I remove the cards plugged into the daughter-board, and
- remove the daughter-board. And I try to yank on the yellow
- battery. This sucker seems like it isn't supposed to be
- removed from the daughter board.
-
- Anyone with any helpful ideas?
