Be Careful.  Check that you have the computer lay out of motherboard
first, so that you know if it is 'easy' (just some removal of outer
skin) or difficult (some Dell machines need screen and key board to be
removed before you get to CMOS battery, it was an anti-prevention method
to stop 'quick fix' if stolen when BIOS was password protected.
That is not an easy job for the non skilled .
