</div>Why wait an hour, when shortening the pin of the battery holder for 5s<br>
will achieve the same goal?<br>

The first three times I took the machine down to a pro and he basically did what you did but then tried a good CPU at which point we got a new MB and that fixed it. More recently, I strip everything out and put the MB/CPU/Case/PS in the attic and get another one. The point is, even a pro will just do what you did and substitute parts until it works. I also tried resetting the BIOS but that never worked.</div>
