Clear cmos? Mb battery out for 5minutes,might need longer if its badly corrupted

Please can you tell me where the batter I need to take out is and what it looks like ? And is the "CMOS " the reset button or something ells ?

It's on the motherboard,a big silver round battery,pinch the clips together and it will lift up and pop out,if there's a clear cmos button at the back of the pc press it,but the best method is battery removal

It will be toward the bottom of the board,where the graphic card is

Ok thanks loads for the extra info their , I have now found the battery and done the CMOS reset and I'm able to access my bios and my desktop again so feeewww ... But now I'm left with windows telling me my copy of windiws 7 is not genuine ?? I know it is .. So why is this happening now .. Am I going to have to buy a new OS ? Or is their a fix for this issue also ?

Again please help
