I've attempted to shut down the PSU, removed the CMOS battery and reinserted it, but couldn't get the power button to work. I'm curious—does holding the power button even make a difference if the PSU is off? The PC wouldn't receive power, so it wouldn't recognize the button action.
It discharges the charge, though certainty isn't guaranteed. It varies based on the motherboard/PSU setup. It's advised to proceed cautiously but not completely avoid it.
You either remove the battery for 30 seconds or start the device without it connected.
