A Tips on how to fix the Sony PCG GR300 sequence Laptop?

My personal CMOS electric battery was passing away on my personal (admittedly ancient) Sony Vaio PCG-GR390 (GR300 series) pc. It went on me quite some time to learn how to get to the innards (and, searching the web was not necessarily helpful! ). That article tells you how to be able to replace the CMOS electric battery or rest exposed including the keyboard as well as maybe the fan.

recommendations

ONE. get yourself a battery. They are hard to find for outstanding prices. I eventually found one on eBay by doing a search intended for "2/V15H". there can be other places -- MY SPOUSE AND I thought 4D electronics was one -- yet they failed to have the part and quite a few others desired $20 and also $10 shipping!

TWO. change the electric battery. The CMOS electric battery is about in the center of the pc case beneath the keyboard. its probably branded 2/V15H, only two. 4V, 15mAh. it is possible to just unhook the old vgp-bpl13 electric battery connector and get together the different battery, leaving the old battery from the computer. The fresh one can be set up (with double-sided sticky tape) over the good old battery vgp-bps9a/b.

THREE. Remove the strip previously mentioned the keyboard. that strip includes the audio system, status signals, power switch, and style number (PCG-GR390 intended for mine). to eliminate this, first remove a smaller rubber switch above the F3 key and just simply below the screen. MY SPOUSE AND I used a smaller knife but a smaller flat-blade screwdriver works, way too. following, remove the Phillips-head screw under the button. last but not least, push on the right end from the strip to be able to release the "hooks" keeping that conclusion and the center of the strip, lift the strip about 1/2in (there are somewhat fragile connectors as well as cables underneath), and fold the strip back from the screen. for obtaining to take away the wires or connectors.

FOUE. Remove the keyboard. there's a small Phillips-head screw just previously mentioned the F8 key. Take away that as well as the keyboard may then be folded down on the Touchpad. unless you are replacing the keyboard, you do not need to detach it.

FIVE. Remove almost all power sources including the AC adapter as well as the main electric battery (open flap on right facet of pc and remove).

SIX. Reassemble. placed back the keyboard, its screw, the strip while using speakers, its screw (optionally change the rubberized button), the battery vgp-bps13/b, and the AC connector and you need to be ready on top of that. You will have reset the CMOS memory along the way so everything will revert to the default configurations (that are usually what you long for, anyway). it is possible to reset the clock previous to booting home windows or put it off and use this once home windows (or the operating system) will be booted.
