If I remove the motherboard battery on my laptop, does it go back to the factory default settings? Can I reinstall Windows after this.?

    Removing the CMOS(mobo battery) doesn't do anything with your OS, except reset the clocks for your laptop. It will not go to factory reset. To go to factory setting you should probably call your laptop brand, they should be able to guide you through where to find the factory settings. Should be able to search it in the start menu.

    Only the motherboard.
