Hello, your PC built with an MPG B560I motherboard is showing no activity before. The CMOS battery issue seems resolved after reinserting it. You’re likely just needing a new CMOS battery—choose a compatible one from the same brand or similar model. Let me know if you need more details!

Are you looking for something that matches the existing cable for proper connection?

Obtain a multimeter and check the voltage. If it exceeds 2.8 volts, the battery seems intact. If it's completely dead, you might find pre-installed batteries at stores that repair phones or computers—though this is rare with just wires and connectors. You could cut the wires and solder them onto a fresh battery. If you lack a soldering iron, visit a phone or computer repair shop; they usually have no issue soldering the wires for you in about five minutes. Using wires and connectors only, but be aware it doesn’t guarantee the same connector will fit. For pins, you can solder wires to them using the provided pins: https://www.digikey.com/short/05bmnbnz. Regardless of method, wrap the battery, pins, and wire ends with electrical tape or heatshrink (the black plastic on batteries is just a type of heatshrink).

You're right, it's simpler and costs less.

The board features a header for the CMOS battery instead of a standard socket. If someone had it without the wires already connected, they would have to solder the wires together themselves.

Don't stress, the person got it with wire. They aren't really required to weld it, just a little electrical tape would work. If you want to go up a notch, grab two metal washers.
