Sounds like bios battery to me if that worked. It's replaceable, on a laptop
it's very likely under the keyboard.

Subject: Windows XP Logging Computer Issue Solved, at least for now
Hi, everyone.
Well, it turns out that Albert's suggestion did the trick, at least for now.
I turned off the laptop, took the battery out, and unplugged the DC power
supply connection. I then let the computer sit for about 15 minutes to make
sure everything was cleared from the machine's memory.
When I plugged things back in and re-booted the machine, things began
working again.
I am not sure this will solve my issue in the long term, since I probably
really do need to think about replacing this old Windows XP logging
computer, but at least I'm up and running again for now.
Thanks to all for such a quick response to my rather desperate plea for help
here. (LOL)
