FAQ's:
Q: How long do you leave the CMOS Battery out for?
A: Usually 15 - 20 seconds

Q: Does this reset your BIOS password?
A: This video does not claim to be a way to reset the BIOS password. Only the settings.
Unfortunately, I dont advise on how to bypass BIOS passwords on this channel.

Q: I cant find my CMOS battery?
A: Not all motherboards have a CMOS battery. Yours may not. In that case, you will not be able to reset BIOS in this way. Are you able to access BIOS during startup and select the Factory Reset options in there?

Q: Does this delete all my data?
A: No. This is resetting BIOS, not Windows. This will not affect any DATA or settings in Windows.

Q: What if I have to do this every time to turn on the computer?
A: If you have to do this every time, then your most likely looking at a failing CMOS battery. You should replace it.

I'm trying to move the easier hardware stuff there so that I can focus on the more in depth troubleshooting and diagnostic videos here :)

Wow... My pc suddenly went dead, particularly it did not give any signs of life. I followed your videos and now everything is allright. I usually don't ever comment on YouTube but you really deserve my applaud! Great job

Thank you.
Incredible.
Having spent all day trying to fix my laptop and not getting anywhere, YOUR simple straight forward instructions have saved my laptop.
I did the Bios reset and it worked.

Huge thank you.😁😁😁

Thank you, it worked!! For others reading this, the fix didn't happen immediately for me, it took a few mins for the screen to light up and work (my original issue was power on but not screen). But smooth sailing now.

Thanks a lot the bios reset did actually work for me.
The repair shop asked me around INR 3 to 4k. but i managed to do myself thanks to you.

Thank you so much. We've been dealing with the obnoxious beep for so long and a repair shop said that it was the motherboard. I switched out the CMOS battery and now no more beeps. Now I wish I could get it to run/load faster 😆

[abbos]

I really have to thank you, my pc was practically dead and I was desperate. I really didn't know how I could solve the problem and by chance I saw this video. You saved me!!! Thank you again bro <3

[amadfriends]

Never thought removing the CMOS Battery and putting it back again will solve this ! Thank you very much!

[prcvlgzz]

Thanks alot, the video is from 2 years ago and still is saving lives 😅

[kellyyogurt]

Hi im just back from the startup failure from overclocking my ram (my bad) and this tutorial works really well. You did teach on how to properly remove the Ideapad CMOS battery (which i dont found any workaround other place) and it becomes so easy to get what i wanted. No factory reset, No data loss, everything works fine again just like before. Thank you so much on the detailed tutorial!❤

[oishidasgupta]

Lenovo's tech support is simply not it. But I am glad your video was here because it worked. Thank you!!

[princeademola]

Thanks for this tutorial. Please I need your help regarding my Laptop - Lenovo G500, I have done what you ask us to do and removed the CMOS battery for like 4 hours but still bring a password to log in. I can log in to the system but it is an old one and I would like to change it to Chrome OS to be useful. Please help.

Thank you so much. The computer repair guy said my laptop was gone for good and I was devastated as I didn’t have money for a new and need a laptop for university
