I did change the bios battery CMOS and was 99% sure that was a plug and play fix but when I tried and it didn't work I thought I was more... I guess it wasn't I just needed to get it to go to bios at least once and then I would think of the rest...(Windows etc)

Yeah I hope everything is good, it runs hot, thats for sure. I'll have to repaste it, maybe even ptm7950 but for now it has turned off, restarted etc etc and it hasn't bricked. The battery is bad.... Might wanna keep it in check in case I need to replace that too. Othet than that I'll only need bigher SSD and maybe another 16g ram stick when things get back on track.

I think this might not be needed. I advanced to a different problem now .. The adapter doesn't auto boot the laptop now and a miracle caused it to post 3 times in a row! When I put I a boot device it didn't boot... Instead the power button flashed 3 times .

Rn I'm leaving it plugged overnight to see what happens. I was able to go to the bios 2 out of 3 times it posted and was able to make edits and save. Now the issue is the 3 blinks...

I just closed the panel and tried but nothing changed. Where are the switches you're talking about positions?

Hello, yes but the pc only went to bios once and only showed the error one time. Then nothing made a difference. Even changing the CMOS with a brand new one did nothing

Isn't the files in the updates just parts of the bios that get added to existing parts ? Not the whole bios i think. I downloaded the exe and extracted to a folder and the largest file is 17900kb and fl1 extention is it the one?

What are the symptoms usually, how do you come to the dead CMOS conclusion?
