Unless you damaged something else while pulling the boards (unlikely), your only problem is that you lost the RT BIOS when you pulled the battery. It is also likely that you lost the WS settings as well, but that is not always as critical. If you want to send me your board, I can reflash the BIOS for you. If you are interested, send me a PM with your board's part number and contact information.
