Where is my CMOS battery?

[antykun]

Hi everyone, I'm having a nightmare. I ordered my laptop last year for over a grand and it has constantly had a cmos battery error message. PC specialist said just replace it myself because its cheaper than sending (even though they sent me a faulty laptop in the first place). I am now trying to replace it but I cant find at all where my cmos battery even is? Here is a picture of my laptop with the back off.

I would give them a call and ask for a manual.

I definitely cannot see a CMOS battery on that image.

As Spyder says, get in touch and ask for the manual.

What chassis is it? It's on the label on the base.

If it's not on the bottom then it's on the top.

It's likely under the keyboard, that's where it is on my old Optimus IV.

As far as i am aware, its located just outside camera shot (upwards based on the orientation of the image).

Or left side with the laptop on its screen with the hinges furthest away from you.

Hi, I actually can't find it, it is meant to be a circular battery right?
