Subject: Re: Nearly on topic-ish. Digital HiNote VP laptop
I know I can replace it no bother, but it should really still run without
the battery present....
because the CMOS battery (non-standard dammit)
All I can say is that replacing one battery with one of
another shape (both are two leads) is one of the easiest
retrogrades somebody could do. If you can't find the specs
of the old battery then post a picture... Now, try getting 4 wires of an unknown PSU matched
up...
Heh, I've got a Grundy Newbrain PSU here that's missing its plug so I'll be
having similar fun trying to sort that one out :)
Cheers
