I picked up a LT-286 today, the CMOS isn't holding a charge. the old battery was quite large, and had been replaced previously.
I'm thinking a CR2032 would be too small? did it matter?

I found on ebay ER14250 batteries (3.6v) ad holders that might fit but I want to make sure I don't put somethign that's going to leak in there.

Suggestions?

Trying to bring back this post, I managed to get floppy images to configure the BIOS, figure out the hard disk type and get it to boot to Dos.
I got a CGA adapter coming to display the external output onto a screen, but does anyone have any info on the expansion dock? There's a little slot at the back, that is for a exteranl dock.
I was hoping to see if I can figure out how to mod it to get a adlib in there a SB 1.0/clone

I can't find anything like a pinout, but there's a post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/retrobattlestations/ … couple_friends/

that claims the internal is a mini-ISA:

-An adapter from the internal expansion slot to external ISA slot (which never existed but I always dreamed making one, because slots are just tiny ISA slots) and a ISA network card

So it might be possible to make up an adapter.
