How do you replace the motherboard battery/CMOS battery?

Yeah Man! They are the same type of battery! You can get the battery at Best Buy or Comp USA +) (Best Answer)

Yes usually they are the same thing. On most motherboards it is a 3volt battery that looks like it should be in a watch. There is no specific place to look as too each motherboard is different. There will be a metal piece that holds it in place and it will either swing left to right or pull back slightly so the battery can be removed. Make sure you get the same type of battery to replace it.

Also, a very helpfull thing would be to find the manual for the maker of your board before doing anything but it is not a requirement.
