I have an old Advent 7111 laptop that I have just for playing music and not much else. It works fine for what I need it for, except for the fact that when I switch it on, it thinks it's July 2005. Normally I would assume the CMOS battery needs replacing but I've popped the back off and I don't see any battery.
Anyone know if this model of laptop had a CMOS battery, instead of maybe doing something odd like using the main laptop battery to store its settings? If it does have a CMOS battery, any idea how to find and change it?
I have done a bit of googling and haven't found an answer. All I found was someone asking the same question but not getting an answer.
Thanks.
