Replacing the backup battery is as easy as lifting up the keyboard and palmrest, sliding out the old battery and disconnecting it, then installing the new clock battery and reassembling it.
- As the Compaq BIOS on some models may not alert the user when the backup battery is dead, you can identify a dead backup battery when the system turns on, then off and back on again after you press one of the two power buttons.
- A dead backup battery can also be identified on newer BIOS versions when the system does a memory count after powering on then prompts you that the system options have not been set.

then you will need to use a small plastic opening tool to lift 2 clips on the front. The palmrest should flip open and rest over the keyboard.
