Battery problem spoiling my life


Hi Guy's. I am running an Optiplex GX260. I have Linux Lite and win xp installed. I have terminal cancer and it in my bones, particularly in my spine. I am in dreadful pain making it difficult to do anything. All I have is my computer and even this is difficult, when sonething like this happens I am stumped. I need to replace the battery and put an end to the constant bombardment every morning. I need a friend who could replace the battery (what type? I dont know) for me. Obviously I would pay for the time and trouble, etc. It would be best for someone near at hand ( I live in East Hull. HU9 area) I know I am in the wrong place, but maybe just maybe someone can help me out here. Thank you Walt ( cypher000)

I am guessing this is the bios battery since we are talking about a dell tower here.

I live in Texas. Otherwise. I'd come and visit and do it for you.

I am just posting to give future local help a idea what is entailed.
