How do you replace the battery on the 160GB model?

[HavocHero]

My Archos 605wifi 160gb has a pretty much dead battery. I was wondering if the process of replacing the battery is the same as the 30/4gb models or if it is different. If it is different does anyone have a link or a guide as to how you would change the battery?

There are some threads here but I don't have any links. It is basically the same but the battery of the 160 is under the hard drive. You may have to remove the HD but I don't remember. It is easier with the 4 and 30.

Try some searches and you might get lucky. Good luck.

I already tried a bunch of searches no luck so far, but ill keep looking. There has to be instructions somewhere on the internet... i mean it is the internet. I once saw a post for installing linux on a dead badger.

Well, like many of you, I keep plenty of badgers around. And after a while the dead ones just start piling up. It's great that I have now found something to do with them. I thought they were worthless.

I love the internet!
