Good Morning, looking for a bit of quick advice please, turned on my PC the last few mornings and as it's booting, a message comes up ' Low System Battery ' press F1 to continue or F2 to setup. I'm ok with delving into the casing, but is this a DIY job and whats involved please, do I need to make a note of settings and where from ? The systems a 7-10 year old Dell Many Thanks in advance

Ta, I will re-read this thread before I attempt it, and if I'm still not clear I'll give you a shout! It looks fairly straightforward but you never know with computers...

One important thing is with all computer repairs (desktop) of any kind is to unplug the power cord and then press the start button, so you
discharge the system, the power will last approx 1 second,
This is important because if you get that Power Spike it could be fatal.
