IBM Think Pad T20 - bios battery ??
Whenever I boot up my Thinkpad it defaults to a screen asking you to put in the date/time etc, before starting up.
I wondered if there was a battery somewhere (not the main one) that stores stuff like time/date etc when the laptop is switched off - and is it easy to replace?

it should be under the memory stick, underneath the laptop should be a little door and screw, open that and have a look underneath, that's where it is on my thinkpad x22

On the Thinkpad T20 I think you'll find the BIOS battery under the main battery. Just pop the main battery out and you should see the BIOS battery.
