Is the KTS lithium battery for my motherboard broken, or is it something else?
For the past few months, I have been having some problems with my PC that involve it not powering on when everything is connected as it should be, e.g. power cable plugged in, power supply switched on and plugged into motherboard as it should be. When working, the power light on my graphics card lights up, and then I would be able to simply press the power button on the PC as you do, and it would power on. But every now and then, when I go to my PC, the power light on my graphics card isn't on and the PC won't switch on, regardless of whether or not the power supply is on or off. I looked it up on Google a while back and found an answer that fixed this, remove the small coin shaped battery labeled KTS on the motherboard for about 30 secs and make sure there aren't any scratches on it, then put it back in and it should be working fine... Which it has been until recently. Now when I do this, nothing changes and it still won't switch on. Have I simply worn out the battery by removing it too many times or is it the whole motherboard or what?
