I have a thinkpad T440p, i have replaced the CMOS because it died on me, but now after a while of getting the new one my PC is behaving weirdly, it takes three tries to turn it on. First time i turn it on and it tries to start but shuts off; the second it tries but shuts off much quicker with a strange sound that seems like the speaker suddenly disconnecting and then it works flawlessly on the third try. Is the CMOS the problem here?

    it might be getting a charge with the ac and letting it boot up like normal – i would try another battery in your shoes.

      Yeah the battery is barely hanging on, i believe it’s around 50-60%, i was about to replace it but i didn’t know it could cause this. Removing the battery and turning it on on AC works fine. Are the kingsener fine?
