Someone I know has an older computer with a 486 motherboard. It started getting a "CMOS battery low" error message at boot and won't keep the hard drive settings. After putting in the settings it gets the same error message and won't boot into Windows 95.
I looked at the motherboard, and it doesn't have one of those round CMOS batteries like newer computers use. I saw a rectangular chip with "TH6886A" that I thought might be the CMOS battery. Can anybody tell me how to replace the CMOS battery on this motherboard? Is it even worth getting one? Thanks.
