I have now (Monday morning) replaced the CMOS battery in the ailing Lenovo Legion T5. After replacing it, I cold-booted up and reset the date -- it seems stuck on Sept 9 -- and ran it for a few minutes. Then I warm-rebooted, and the computer came up quickly. But the date is still stuck on Sept 9. I'll try another cold boot and look into BIOS settings, but I'm afraid that's an indication that the problems go beyond the battery. (Unless of course the battery I put in was also dead, but that seems a wishful stretch.)
