you should have a recovery disk. the machine boots up from the hard drive first, then looks for the cd rom. put the cd in the reader and restart the machine. when you took out the mb battery you lost everything in the cmos. the bios is in the eprom [erasable programmable read only memory] so if you haven't flashed the bios the stuff should still be in there. when the machine starts go into setup. you'll need to reset stuff in cmos before anything will work.
