[ltp] tp600e CMOS battery

[Robert Hollis]

Battery is located in the floppy/cd/dvd slot on bottom (remove drive and 
look at normal bottom to find).  Remove door where RAM is installed and 
unhook 2-wire lead going towards front of laptop.CMOS battery now 
disconnected.  Have not looked to see how to remove it.

My 600e does not need a CMOS battery, but I took a look at the manual ( 
http://www-3.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/LWIK-3SYPX2.html ) just to verify 

the difficulty in replacement. I do not see a CMOS battery listed.

Can someone who has actually replaced the CMOS battery on a 600e please 
describe the process? Is is actually in the hardware manual and I have 
just 
missed it?

Kyle
