Two questions then,
A. Is it possible it is just the BIOS battery, or would the whole motherboard need to be changed,
B. How would I backup the data using another PC? can you provide instructions or a link to show me how?
I pulled the hard drive out of the laptop, and opened up my PC, but see no place to connect it. Where to I buy a PCI-USB connector?
No problem,
I will pick up a cable. One last question, any recomendation on a good place to go for a motherboard?
No it is not under warranty.
One more question. I have pulled the SATA drive from the laptop and connected it to a bytecc usb 2 drive mate adapter and my computer was able to detect the drive the first time I connected, but after that it does not detect it. Any suggestions?
Managed to get the computer to read the drive. Pulled all the data. Thanks for all your help!
