This is so helpful. I knew what I needed to do but I'm worried about messing something up so having a tutorial was helpful
Glad it helped. If you haven't already, please like and subscribe so others can find my videos. Thanks!
If you just want to switch the battery, there is no need to remove the wireless card and light/USB plugs or the hidden USB port bracket next to the HDD on the flip side (I learned because I did not have the strength to unscrew it :P Don't laugh). The cables that remain connected to the box are long enough to still easily lift the board and access the battery.
Anyway, thank you for the great video.
Glad you were able to figure it out and use your brain to see what needs to be done. A lot of people aren't able to think for themselves and need exact steps for everything, and if something doesn't work, they give up. Lol
where do you buy the battery thing?
Here amzn.to/3HbAIJo :)
what about using tape to keep battery tight after replacing battery inside plastic bag of original battery , I can't do soldering
You'll have to take it somewhere or learn to solder
what if you still keep replacing it it still keeps happening what else is the problem i replace my cmos battery in my steam machine like 5 times nothing fixes there all brand new .i had the first model r1 with the steam controller and i do not know what is going on with this damn thing i had it since launch.
Date and time keeps resetting? Maybe the battery connector isn't soldered right, not sure.
Do you maybe know why my steam machine isnt turning on at all without any lights flashing? The power cable is lit up.
Not sure
Can you remove motherboard (fans, 4 big screws, 2 small screws, back metal plate)
Without removing the hardrive ?
Give it a try.
@@ItsBinhRepairedit wouldn’t. Anyways. I upgraded the ram and ssd. Works great.
I tested my fans. They passsed… however my CPU THERMISTOR IS STAYS AT 90C!!
I re applied THERMAL PASTE.. but didn’t make a difference… any ideas?
Did you check the heatsink radiator fins?
What’s the difference between the alpha and alpha steam machine? The thumbs down was by accident too.
Not sure. I just take computers apart and put them back together. You'll want to ask a dell/alienware rep or Google it
@@ItsBinhRepaired No worries
The "Steam Machine" was the initial release with the Steam OS software preinstalled. The standard Alpha came with Win 8 standard, iirc
I see
Like to know If the battery is a standard cr2032 lithium or a rechargeable type?
I put a cr2032 in the holder
@@ItsBinhRepaired Thank you for your reply. Is it safe using the standard battery instead of the rechargeable type the came with machine?
@@bonvelo5110 not sure
@@bonvelo5110 cr2032 should be fine.
@@bonvelo5110 haven't had issues with it
