Although you have gotten tons of advice, I'd just like to add that
your computer CMOS battery and WinXP are not related in any way. As
this is an XP board, your question is most certainly off-topic here.

I sure wish I could afford to go on a vacation long enough to have
to worry about the battery for the CMOS running down !!!

If your clock has been keeping good time while the PC is turned off (Powered
down) you should have no worry. Especially if you have a record of your BIOS
settings. Batteries should be good for 3-5 years, and the classic indication of
a weakening battery is clock malfunction. Have a good vcaation.
