Portege M100 - How to replace the RTC battery?

Hello, the RTC battery of my Portege M100 is flat. I manage to order one from the internet but I can't locate it. I dismantle almost every part of the computer, but if someone could just guide me and give the procedure du replace it, it would be great. Thanks in advance!!

Hi friend,
its easy to replace the RTC battery on your machine. I did it already and I had no problems during the replacement, I mean it was a little bit tricky to find the batt. but I will give everything from my experience. ;)
Look first at the wireless lan card, theres a slot an under the slot is the minipci-wlan-card located. Near the wireless lan card slot is some little cover, this cover must be removed (gently). The RTC battery is located in some white insulator, but before peeling that little battery out, you must disconnect the battery from the mainboard. After disconnecting it, just lift the RTC up and place the new one there.
Thats all, unfortunately I cannot serve you with some pics, so you will have to imagine it by yourself. ;)
Good luck and greets
P.s.: If you feel uncomfortable in replacing the batt, then ask some techie to help you.

  • Satellite A65-S126: Cannot find the RTC battery

    I have my machine turn down but cannot find the batteries to replace them. Based on Toshiba support the P/N are P000444350 but there is no such item in the case that I can see. Any ideas..?
    Even the disassembly manuals online do not show them.
    I know there must be something in here.
    Also according to the operation manual these batteries take power from the main battery.
    Since my main battery is completely dead, would this account for the time snyc issue I'm having with the RTC batteries; since they are not getting power to recharge??

    Sorry for my misunderstanding but what battery do you mean exactly.
    Do you mean the main battery or the tiny RTC battery which is fixed on the motherboard?!
    > Also according to the operation manual these batteries take power from the main battery.
    This is not exactly right.
    The RTC battery provides power to the motherboard therewith the internal clock and the BIOS can run 24/7.
    It does no matter if the main battery is empty. The RTC should provide the power to motherboard for several times also if the main battery is empty.
    If the RTC battery is empty the motherboard cannot be provided with power and the internal clock, BIOS will be reset.
    In such case you have to connect the main battery and the AC adaptor to the notebook and let the battery charge for about 12 hours.
    For details please check the user manual -> battery chapter

  • How to replace remote's battery?

    I have a new iMac G5, currently running OS 10.4.6, with Front Row 1.2.2. I can activate Front Row by using the COMMAND+ESCAPE keys, but the remote has no effect. I tried to use the remote to pause/play in iTunes with no luck - so it looks like the battery is the culprit.
    Is this a user-serviceable repair? I can't find any technical article on how to replace the battery - or is this something that only Apple can do?
    Thanks for any wisdom anyone may have.

    Replacing the battery is easy. Take a pen and click the dimple in the end of the remote, a drawer will pop out with the battery in it.

    Several years ago, when the link went to a different content page and was
    likely more useful to someone whose product may have/had warranty, then
    it was of help. Now, to look back on several older posted links and click on
    them, quite often will take the participant to http://www.apple.com/support/
    no matter what the initial out-dated a link originally appeared to suggest.

    An Authorized Apple Service Provider may also be capable of restoring
    function to older hardware; though getting replacement new parts is an
    issue going forward, as it always has been, given new product change.
    For other repairs, one should look to Specialists and that includes repair

    A few examples exist, one of them is wegenermedia.com for portables;
    since they can be more easily/less costly shipped than desktop models.
    To post a comment to a stale and outdated thread, brings little to the table
    of discussions; any issue from two to five years ago is not current today in

    In any event...

  • How long does the MBR Battery last in years? Deciding factor on purchasing? Help?

    I'm nearly ready to pull the trigger and get my first MBR 15 inch, but something keeps nagging. The Battery. THE BATTERY. Yes the battery is relatively nice, and one might think insignificant in the grand scheme, but IT'S GLUED INSIDE THE COMPUTER, and basically IRREPLACEABLE unless you pay some ridiculous cost, my guess is around $400. So how long is the battery expected to last? 4 years? No battery lasts 4 years. It's mind-boggling to me why Apple decided to glue the battery. After 2 years of moderate to heavy use of your MBR you're just expected to fork over $400 for a new battery? A NEW BATTERY?!!!!! Realistically how long will the MBR battery last before it gives up the ghost and has to be plugged in 24/7?

    It is not "glued" inside the computer.  And yes Apple offers a replacement program for $200 and under depending on the model for out of warranty:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=Macn otebooks
    For in warranty for a defective battery, it is free:

  • Qosmio G50-10J: How to replace the Optical Disc Drive (ODD)?

    Hello there,
    the optical drive of my Qosmio G 50 is not working properly anymore, it reads only some movie-DVDs, but sadly no videogameDVDs at all, so I cannot instal any games.
    The warranty has already expired too. So I wanted to ask if it is possible to change the drive myself, if it is then how should I do it, and if by doing it would the laptop be in
    serious risk of getting damaged?
    I would be very thankful for every tip and every help you guys can give me!!!
    Best regards,
    a.z.

    Hi
    In different cases the ODD replacement is not very tricky.
    If you want you can check this forum category.
    Here you can find some videos how to replace the ODD on different notebook models:
    http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=115
    Here is also a nice Youtube channel which provides the instructions how to replace the ODD:
    http://www.youtube.com/user/toshibaeuropesupport
    But maybe the ODD laser lens is dirty. In my case I could solve similar issue cleaning the laser lens using a cotton-wool tip and alcohol.
    But be careful doing this!

  • Satallite A100: How to replace the keycaps?

    Is there a manual on how to replace the keycaps after they come off?
    My Satallite A100, one year old, lost two keycaps a few weeks ago, and I am unable to replace them, although I have all the (little) parts. It got even worse when some more came loose recently when my little son peeled some off, using the room created by the already missing keycaps.
    Thanks!

    Hello Mike
    Reading your posting I can not understand exactly what is wrong with your keyboard but removing and putting in place keycaps (plastic with written symbol) is not problematic. You must just put it right in place and gently press it down. You will hear click and the keycap will be in the place again.
    Under this keycap is placed small plastic mechanism. It contains two small plastic parts. If they are removed from the bottom you can put them inside again. To see how it looks like remove keycap from any other key and see how is it placed.
    I have done the same now and with a little bit patience you can put it in the right position again.

  • How long is the iPad battery last while watching video on YouTube with 3G?

    How long is the iPad2 battery last while watching video on YouTube with 3G?

    My iPad 2 battery can use only ~7 hours 15mins when surfing the web using cellular data network. Is it normal?
    I would say that's normal. Cellular uses more power than wifi. Your screen brightness is also a factor. Lower the screen brightness & battery will last longer.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html
    Also, if you have a 3rd generation iPad, look at Apple: iPad Battery Nothing to Get Charged Up About

  • How to replace the certificate of Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller for CAPWAP ?

    I have interested in CAPWAP feature and I download the open capwap project to make Access Controller (AC) and Wireless Terminal Point (WTP). I had built the AC which used PC and WTP which used Atheros AP. The CAPWAP feature work well when I enabled the CAPWAP that used my own AC  and WTP. When I got the Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller (Cisco WLC), I configured the Cisco WLC to instead my own AC but I got the authorize fail in Cisco WLC side. It seem the Cisco WLC could not recognize the CAPWAP message which sent form my own WTP. I think this issue just need to synchronize the certificate between Cisco WLC and WTP.So I need to replace the Cisco WLC's certificate manually. Does anyone know how to replace the certificate manually with Cisco WLC ?
    Best Regards,
    Alan

    Unfortunately this Support Community is for Cisco Small Business & Small Business Pro product offerings.  The WLC2106 is a traditional Cisco product.  You can find this type of support on the Cisco NetPro Forum for all traditional Cisco products.

  • How long does the IPhone5c battery last for without hardly any usage with about 2/3 to 3/4 left?

    How long does the IPhone5c battery last for without hardly any usage with about 2/3 to 3/4 left?
    Has the side affect of charging, where the battery's life gradually decreases overall with each charge, been fixed ?

    Eric,
    They did say 12-14 hours, but as is always the case with such estimates, they invariably quote the 'best possible scenario' and almost never mirror 'real world' conditions.
    If, from a fully charged position, you simply switch on your nano, and set it to continuously play through a long set of songs, with EQ off, backlight off, modest volume (50%) don't touch it during playback, then you might just get somewhere near this figure - and if you don't then it's either not been conditioned properly or it's faulty.
    If you use it like me, daily for a couple of hours, with 2 secs backlight and switch songs regularly, using fairly high volumes then 6-8 hours is more likely. It'll even drain when it's not in use, even in sleep mode, albeit very slowly. They also tend to drain more quickly before they've been through their first few charge cycles (the conditioning period).
    Personally I haven't got a problem with this though I can understand why some people have. It's not very impressive in this respect. Apple should be able to come up with something much better - maybe they should talk to Sony

    Hi Sridhar,
    I would like to Replace the Charecter values with numeric value in my string.
    Exp : first in my string I am having the value like this : 'ABCD1234' ( may be any char and num values ), and I want too get it by '99991234'.
    So, if i understand you correctly, you want to replace all characters in a string with 9 as in the above example, irrespective of position of the character, if so try with the below code.
    DATA: l_str TYPE string.
    l_str = 'ASKHSIUDNSBDKJSDH124312431243124saasdfsf'.
    REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '\D' IN l_str WITH '9'.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      WRITE: l_str. "Result will be 9999999999999999912431243124312499999999
