This morning I was called to make a House Call for a computer
member. It was explained to me that he had been receiving some
vague messages. He had decided that it needed a new CMOS battery.
On the way to the store he dropped the battery that he had removed
down along side the transmission housing. So he simply guessed as
to the replacement. When he had installed it, the computer wouldn't
boot. That's when I was called. After attempting to start it, I
very carefully explained that I would take it to our hardware guru
and that it appeared to be a power supply. This explanation took
several minutes, and Whoa! It started to boot up. Found some sort
of error, and I pressed on. The system booted up correctly. WinXP
SP2. After resetting the system clock all was normal.
Is this kind of a delay normal?
No.
