Product: HP Pavilion a6000 Desktop
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista (64-bit)

I am working on a Pavillion Desktop a6000 and the bios battery was previously removed. Could someone tell me what battery it takes?

 

I'm not sure if its a  3V, CR2032 or possibly a 3V, CR2025.

 

System Number FQ564AA#ABA

 

Serial Number    [edit]

 

Your help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thank You,

 

Scott

Hi:

 

Any desktop PC I have ever owned takes a CR2032 3V battery.

 

Below is the link to the motherboard specs for your PC.

 

If you increase the browser to 200%, you can barely see that the battery in the picture at the link below shows that it is a CR2032.
