This is on behalf of a family member whose 'vital' office computer will not boot anymore. It often gives a message that the battery is dead. As I walked him thru troubleshooting over the phone, he could not find a battery. So he has taken this "Austin Computer Systems" 386sx to a repair shop. They found the battery soldered on the mobo however, apparently there are no markings on it as to voltage. I have not been able to find any specs on this board. Can anyone advise if a typical 3.3V battery will work? I don't think it has one of those Dallas DS1287 clock chip (see thread "CMOS battery mystery"), but I don't really know for sure...but will try to find out.
