Hey there! So I recently had an issue with my laptop, it wouldn't boot. So I removed the cmos battery. But it won't go back in. It does boot again, so not really a very big issue. But every time I remove my battery (not cmos) it resets the date and time and I have to reïnstall windows because windows boot manager is missing. I put a bit of electrical tape over it (black tape), but it still keeps on getting the same issues. Also sometimes it turns itself on when i shut it down so I have to remove the battery. My laptop is an asus k53sc-sx404v

you shouldn't have to reinstall windows because of that. all you should have to do is go back into the BIOS and set the boot order. the battery should be easy to pop back in so check for any damage around the battery compartment.
I know, but usually there's a windows boot manager option, which is not there once I remove the battery. If I set the boot option to the hdd first it's stuck at a flickering -. I'm right now checking for damage around the battery, will tell you the results in a few minutes
Some clip that should be on top of it is gone, most likely the reason. The clip is back on there (done with some black electrical tape) and it still doesn't work properly. I have actually found a way to fix it, I had to boot in the windows install usb, hit repair this computer and then go to windows 10. That way it adds the boot manager back. Not the best way, but it works. If there's a better solution, please let me know.

yea, sounds like whomever told you that doesn't know what they are talking about. there should be a way to get the battery back in somehow.
Already got the motherboard. Anyway, the battery does stay in there. Got this motherboard: https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Asus-K53SV-REV-2-3-motherboard-fit-K53S-K53SC-K53SJ-HM65-DDR3-Mainboard-c/172961444241?hash=item28454e3191:g:~wsAAOSwY~1Z-5dT Only thing I noticed was that it had a different gpu, but it's a better one so it doesn't matter to me. There was no cpu in it, so I got the cpu from the old board in there.
fagetti :
If you have now better gpu then think it as upgrade 
If you still want to fix old motherboard cmos battery clip and re-sell it for extra cash then i can help

Update: it's way better. Sometimes it still doesn't work but most of the time it does.
