I have a system that worked fine for years and then all of a sudden will not start. There are no beeps. It simply starts for a second and then shuts off. I have norrowed it down to the motherboard, cpu or memory.
My question is: could a dead cmos battery be the cause. Or in other words would a dead battery cause it to not start or would it simply cause settings to not be saved (clock, etc.) Thanks.
