George,

Your problem is not in the CMOS settings.

Most likely, you did not reconnect the cables correctly
for your drives.  Or you "bumped" them loose while
you were changing the battery.

Any time you open the case, a good timesaver is
to ALWAYS....ALWAYS check EVERY wire
and cable and make sure they are plugged in good
and tight _before_ you put the cover back on.

Even if you didn't "do anything" with that particular
piece of hardware, it is very easy to nudge a
cable.
