Capacity is 200mAh (0.6Wh). It powers the real-time clock and SRAM that stores BIOS settings when the laptop is off or unplugged from mains power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eV6000\/V6100\/V6400 and G6000 series fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same motherboard CMOS socket geometry and RTC circuit voltage rail. The 3V retention voltage and physical footprint — 26.25 x 20.12 x 4.60mm — match the original cell across all listed variants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We seated this cell in a V6100 board and measured 3.0V at the CMOS socket contacts. The RTC held time and BIOS settings across repeated cold-power cycles with mains disconnected.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst boot after swap:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After installing, enter BIOS immediately and set the correct date and time, then save and exit. The CMOS cell powers the RTC circuit, and any power interruption resets the clock to a factory default value that must be manually corrected after the swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBIOS clock resetting to 2000 after every power cycle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Presario V6100 RTC circuit requires the CMOS cell to hold at least 2.8V to retain the clock and SRAM contents. Once the original cell drops below that threshold, the RTC loses power the moment mains is removed. The system then boots with the last hardcoded default date — typically 1 January 2000 — because the clock register has reset. Replacing the coin cell restores retention voltage and stops the reset loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCMOS checksum error on boot after fitting a new cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eA checksum error after a cell swap usually means the BIOS compared stored settings to what it found in CMOS SRAM and got a mismatch — a sign the original cell had fully depleted and all stored values were lost. The new cell is not the fault; the stored configuration is simply gone and needs to be re-entered. Boot into BIOS setup, restore your settings manually, set the correct date and time, then save and exit. The checksum error will not return once valid settings are written.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43339850121306,"sku":"BWCS-HDV600BU-1","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43339850154074,"sku":"BWCS-HDV600BU-2","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43339850186842,"sku":"BWCS-HDV600BU-3","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-HDV600BU-1.webp?v=1778366843","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/compaq-presario-v6100-replacement-battery-3v-200mah-lithium","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
