I was trying to update the BIOS on my R31. AC Adapter was connected and I had a fully charged battery. I downloaded the non-floppy version of the update and ran it from my hard drive. The update failed and after reboot, the laptop no longer boots. No POST, no IBM logo, nothing on the screen.
Is there anyway to recover from this short of sending it back to IBM? I read somewhere perhaps disconnecting the CMOS battery could reset the BIOS? Where is the CMOS battery on a R31?
Thanks,
Vance Young
