Hi everyone,

I have a P.C. which I have had to change the battery several times over the last 2 months, I am running a P233mmx CPu and a AT style motherboard with a 6gig hard drive and a S3 4mb video card and 63mb ram , can anyone suggest a possible solution?

Regards

Peter

For a battery to go flat so often there may be a fault on your motherboard. The batteries main purpose is to supply enough power to keep vital boot up information alive when the system is shut down. I appears like a current leak of some sort.
Fixing this will require a technician.

We had similar problems with a batch of Asus socket 7 boards (can't remember the model number sorry) and after we flashed the bios with the latest bios flash no more problem.
