@@escapetherace1943 I said clock battery not the laptop's rechargable one.

Hi! Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delayed response. In terms of battery capacity, it will improve by changing the battery pack with a new one, but the battery life will still depend on your daily usage. Hope this helps. Erica_Lenovo

@@LenovoSupport Hi my battery is 29+ if i replace it with 29++ or 44+ it will not explode?

Yes, a laptop should be able to POST and boot without a CMOS battery. You will probably get date and time errors and have a BIOS that forgets settings. It really is a good idea to get a new one if you can.

On my X230 (flat BIOS battery) I have to press F1 and set the year every time otherwise it won't boot (without big battery). I let Windows set the day, month and time via the internet after which is less effort. If you leave the big battery attached it works fine.

Hi enzoenzinho3156. Thanks for reaching out, and we're sorry to hear that you're having trouble. Could you tell us more about the issue, since when it started, were there changes made prior? Heart_Lenovo

@@LenovoSupport Hi and thanks for your answer! I didnt change anything. I switched it off after work yesterday. Today in the morning when I wanted to start it - nothing happens. No fan, no boot (not even BIOS). Nothing. Just when I put in the charder the green battery light flashes 3 times. I tried all hints I could find. TRied several chargers, with / without battery. Pressed the power-button for 60 sec, pressedit 10 times and held down. Changed RAM modules and last but not least I removed the CMOS battery (did not start without and put on charger. So, my last hope was this "Emergency Reset Hole". Searched for it (even with a lupe ;) - didnt find. Have you any idea, any hint, what I still could try? Thanks so much!

Hi enzoenzinho3156. Thanks for getting back, and we're sorry to hear about what happened. Is the caps lock responding when pressed? Have you tried to call our support team about this? Heart_Lenovo

@@LenovoSupport Hi, no nothing happens. I can press whatever i want. No, didnt try to contact support. i dont have garanty anymore. What is really strange: 6 months ago i had exactly the same with my T560p. Switched off in the evening and next morning didnt start again. Used my T430 (which was my reserve, 5-6 months saved in safe). Loaded the bazzery, switched on and worked as i am used by TP. After 3 days working without any problems the same: next day didnt start too. And now the X230. I dont know how many years (decades) i used my old T60, T500. Sold after many years pf working without any problems. Loved TP T series and recomended to many friends, clienzs. But now I lost 3 in less than 1 year :( Maybe should give another try, other company after being a IBM·Lenovo fanboy for 30 years 😭

Hi enzoenzinho3156. Thanks for getting back, and we're sorry for the inconvenience and to hear you feel that way. Can you provide the serial number of the device via PM/Dm, so we can check how to further assist? Heart_Lenovo

Hi there. Thanks for writing in. Have you tried checking if there are any Windows updates that needs to be updated? Also, have you also tried checking the BIOS version that your laptop is using right now? Ash_Lenovo

@@LenovoSupport Thanks for reply. Both Windows 10 and Linux, Ubuntu, are up to date, BIOS has been reset to original settings from options. BIOS is the latest 2.77 for X230. Windows seem to be able to go suspend mode and shut down correctly if only a short while, few minutes, have passed since last bootup. Restart works fine. It's a minor annoyance that I can't use suspend mode to keep programs open and computer has to shutdown by holding power button. It just started doing that about a year ago and I understand 8 year old computer might need some spare parts this time.

Thanks for sharing those details. We'd like to clarify, are you referring to Sleep Mode? Ash_Lenovo

@@LenovoSupport Yes, in Windows Sleep mode and I suppose Linux Suspend mode means the same thing. I did try turn off hibernate and fast startup with no help to my problem.

Got it. We have found a similar discussion on our community forums, the device model might be different from what you are using, but you may try the steps provided by one of our users. Here's the link to the community forums lnv.gy/3wyLtP9. Let us know how it goes. Ash_Lenovo

Hi Salah! Thanks for reaching out. When did the issue start? Are there any recent changes or updates prior? Does the same error appear while the charger is plugged in? You may try to update the BIOS if there's an available update to check if the error will disappear. Erica_Lenovo

When I remove the battery the laptop don't work

Facebook facebook.com/LenovoSupport Twitter twitter.com/LenovoSupport We'll wait for your response. Rai_Lenovo

You can easily analyze the crash dump with a program called WhoCrashed which might explain if it's a driver issue etc. It sounds like you bought defective RAM, check it with Memtest86.

LenovoSupport Thank you for replying, however I have done a reset, I changed the RAM, did MemTest and looked up with whocrashed and still the blue screen kept coming, so decided to just return the new RAM and leave it until I buy a new laptop!
