    Do i need a new battery ?

    Hi,

    Recently, my system clock is getting slower and slower. I adjusted it and it goes slower again. Is it because of the battery on my motherboard is running out? Where can i buy a new battery for system clock?

    thnx

    I thought the clock battery was just a little watch battery.

    IS it? So all i need is a normal watch battery?

    I guess replacing the battery is simply taking the old one out and put the new one in right?

    Not quite, take it down to an electrical shop and make sure you get the right one.
    If you own a piece of land and there is an volcano on it and it ruins a
    nearby town, do you have to pay for the property damage?
