    A friend of mine had serious problems with overheating, games got hit by a lag spike after playing for like 10-20mins. Due to this he decided to open the laptop and wipe some dust out, but as he tries to bootup after finishing the cleaning nothing happens, it just shows a black screen like the laptop's screen was turned off or something, only the fans throw a short (3-6sec) round and the same applies to CD-Drive. The computer stays on though, same as you'd be overclocking a desktop PC and then you set too high speeds and the PC won't bootup. So i told him to search for the CMOS battery but he couldn't find it, does anybody know where it is?
