    Hello If you think you need to replace your CMOS battery then please go ahead with it. Replacing your CMOS battery wont affect your system peripherals.
    It just maintains the system date & time & the BIOS setting.
    I don't think the error is related to your CMOS battery.

    Hello Minitue,

    I think the only thig you can do is just check your board if its broken & get is tested or then replaced again.
    OR may be you have forgotten something to reconnect. So check all connections once again. This has to be the main culprit or else you need to look at your motherboard to replace.
