Battery is good, it does hold the voltage well enough that it shouldn't be a problem. (2,7V, while rated at 3V)
I did try to clean the cmos - no effect.FYI, 2.7V is close to empty for a button cell. Though I'm guessing that an empty battery likely isn't your problem.
I've had a ton of motherboards either not post or act weirdly with a dead/low/missing battery. I would totally start with putting a fresh battery in it and see what happens.
