(Stock reference image because im terrible at taking pictures)

I got this dell laptop for 10 dollars at a thrift store and it powers on but i beeps 5 times at me before reaping the beeps. I oped up the laptop to give it a light clean but to notice this model has the storage and ram embedded into he board. I took a gamble with this laptop, im thinking the cmos batters need replacing but im unsure. What would you advise? This is a dell inspiration 11 3000 series from 2010.

If you need more info leave a comment.

    Seconded, I’m guessing OP is having slight datetime problems too. Open it up, new battery, like new. Someone probably gave it away because they didn’t know what it meant
