When it fails. You will know when that begins because the clock will start to lose time whenever the machine is powered off. When does that happen? It depends entirely on the specific battery. Sometime as soon as a couple of months after purchase. Sometimes as much as five years later. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP (Windows Desktop Experience) since 2003 Please Reply to the Newsgroup
