That’s the quirk of the platform

#

Does it happen every single boot?

#

or will it stop after a while

#

I also suspect maybe your cmos battery seems to be gone

severe palm
#

Yeah could be

maiden topaz
#

If it happens on every boot

severe palm
#

Wouldn't the keyboard stuff be cleared then too

#

like the rgb fn lock etc

#

every boot

#

Will something like this work?

#

Gonna get it replaced asap then so

Looks like the batteries desktop mb uses

#

yeah the battery itself is fine it's the plug

#

that broke

#

and a tiny bit of the connector

Failure is acceptable, giving up is not

#

Eh if it doesn't end up fixing it's not a huge deal just takes longer to boot that's all

#

But yeah very dumb

severe palm
#

Well my new cmos battery arrived

#

This better work

severe palm
#

Yeah no unfortunately it's not gonna come out

#

Maybe if i remove the fan i will have a better chance but I tried literally everything

#

Guess I'll just live with the longer boot times
