Guys, I do believe its a desktop PC and the battery being referred to is the button cell BIOS battery. There is no need to remove it.
Reinstalled CPU and computer won't boot now....

Thanks Alpha. I don't know how we'd be expected to know this with no specs posted.

If you read though the whole thread you can surmise its a desktop and not a laptop, but yes detailed system specs would help a lot.

I requested specs in my post #28. I'm a dummy I can't help much without the proper specs and I'm not going hunting and pecking throug 30 plus post looking for them. I though it was a laptop.

If its a thread in the News or the Chillout Room, I don't worry about reading the whole thread. When its someone trying to fix a problem though I try to read the whole thread. If it's a long thread I try to at least read all of their posts. I don't like to miss things and get caught on it latter. Every little bit of info helps sometimes.Last edited by alphanumeric; 14 Jul 2012 at 09:23.

Always a possability he got a incompadible CPU
If he has troubles giving you specs maybe he chose the wrong cpu as well
Im sure it has happened before CPU incompadability

Does the CPU you just took out look damaged in anyway ?
Bent pins burns?
Also when you stuck the old CPU back in did it boot right away ?
what was the make of the chip you tryed to install and what is the make of the chip you had taken out originaly
That might be the clue to this thing
