Hi,
I have a P4S533 with a P4 1.8. When I turn my computer on intially, nothing happens at all. The drive lights blink a few times, then nothing at all. If I then unplug it clear the CMOS, I get to post and am getting a CMOS checksum error - CMOS battery failure. If I then hit F1 to continue, the motherboard does the pci listing, and sits for about 2 - 3 minutes doing nothing. Then I get a windows xp screen, and the computer boots normal after that. I can leave it on as long as i like, but as soon as I need to restart or shut down, the next time I want to use my computer, I have to clear the CMOS, and continue to get the battery failure error. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
