After completing an undervolting procedure, the PC fails to power on.
I'm unable to locate the battery's position. I reviewed the motherboard manual, but it only mentions the battery location once.
page 17 displays an overlay of the motherboard. The battery is located between the first and second PCIe slots. The file can be downloaded from the provided link. It's likely positioned near your GPU or very close to its front edge. The Premium PCB Arrow seems to be pointing directly at it here. The round object is the battery.
I managed to locate and remove the battery. Unfortunately, it didn’t have any effect. After reconnecting all the cables and attempting to power it on, only a faint click was heard. I’m not sure whether the noise comes from the board or the PSU.
It seems the previous settings were reset unexpectedly. Were you checking the latest BIOS updates? It might help if a new one was installed. Page 38 of the manual suggests doing this with just the PSU connected. I tend to avoid changing BIOS settings, as things can go wrong either way. Following online guides can sometimes lead to problems. I'm aware of that myself.
Power supply model and make along with usage time are included.
I'm certain battery removal techniques aren't effective on some modern MBs even after a day or year, leaving the BIOS settings unchanged. Using a metal object such as a ballpoint pen nib or a metal stick can shorten the CMOS pin, allowing all BIOS data to be cleared. Remember, CMOS is only for date and time, not for storing BIOS information.
