H2oDunc Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 As the title says is there one ? I need a new CMOS battery for my laptop. Its an Acer Aspire which is pretty big in Thailand and thought it would be no problem. Wrong. I tried every computer shop from Maenam to Chawang and Chong mon and nothing. Nearly all didn't know what a CMOS battery was and was told by some I didn't need one but they could fix it no problem. Anybody know where there is a shop where they at least know the basics of computing ? Cheers in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitmig Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I can't recommend a shop, because I don't let a Thai near my computer again! But I found a German guy who knows his way with computers and he can order any part from BKK which will be here in a couple of days. His name is Ballou (speaks English also) , he lives just next to Tesco in Chaweng. Good luck! Please PM mitmig for conatct details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2oDunc Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hi Blackwolf, I tried him he just said " no have " and walked back into the back of the shop. Not I haven't got one but can order you one or anything. The other half is going to BKK next week so will get her to bring one back.
