Ok, so can I just go and buy a CMOS battery for the mobo and install it or do I have to get another mobo? Also if I don't replace the batt, will it damage the system or cause other problems?
Another question: I did some very basic reading on CMOS errors and CMOS batteries on the net just now. How would a bad CMOS battery explain the system "failing" while it was running? Basically I left the computer on while we went to dinner. When I got back it was still running but screen was black and computer was non-responsive (CODE BLUE!! LOL). And what was up with the speakers saying "System Failed" over and over again? I've never seen that before. I thought I had caught some horrible virus at first...
