If sotec didn't supply it with the machine, then maybe not.
I never bother with looking for a step by step. I pop up the keyboard if I can, look there, then unscrew any small covers to find the battery. Then off to Radio Shack, and install the new one. Best of luck,

I have a Sotec 820P notebook and is really taking time in booting up. The time and date is messed up too. Anyway, I read that it could be the CMOS battery. The computer is out of warranty, so I want to find out step by step on how to replace this battery. How do I open up this notebook? Is it just unscrewing the bottom part? I have not opened up a notebook computer before...can somebody help me? Thanks in advance...
