So my mom's laptop, upon trying to boot, reports "CMOS low battery" and "CMOS checksum bad". If I choose load default values, it goes to another screen, then restarts the computer and I get nowhere.
I replaced the battery, but I still get the same issue, including low battery and checksum bad errors.
I believe that CRT's are fine, its not like I need a new monitor.
Other than the obvious, such as bulkiness and weight, they also have lower resolutions, a ton higher power usage, and they emit a little radiation that some people might be worried about.
