AST Premmia external CMOS battery question
« on: July 31, 2009, 06:15:38 PM »
My AST Premmia MX P/60 (first gen pentium) computer is missing the CMOS battery pack. The battery pack configuration consists of 3 AA rechargable batteries. I Use to have the battery pack put removed it a long time ago because it was bad and I misplaced it. The problem now is finding a replacement. I decided to use a 3.6V battery pack from a cordless phone but I have to determine which pins to connect the battery too. There are 3 pins, 2 close together and 1 by itself. I don't want to connect it backwards. I tried using a volt meter but I can't really get any good readings. All 3 pins give me a reading of what looks like .83 millivolts I believe.
