HP Pavilion p6-2190 Desktop
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I get a Date & Time not set error on boot up, and have to press F1 to login, where I then have to reset the time manually.

 

The fix appears to be that the CMOS battery needs to be replaced, but what type/size of battery is fitted to this model?

 

I don't want to open the computer up more than once, so don't want to have to do this just to check the battery model.

 

Thanks

 

David

Hi, David:

 

I enlarged the picture of the motherboard in your PC and it has the standard CR2032 3V coin cell battery that most desktop motherboards use.

 

The battery is at the top right corner of the motherboard picture at the link below.
