A lot of Laptops are having issues with batteries especially Windows Vista .....mine included. When the laptop has the mains lead in I keep getting a message...that the "power lead connected but the Battery not charging"
When you dissconnect the lead, it goes off and will only come back on with the lead plugged in. I have two batteries both OK, but it will not charge them. I have gone on Google and it seems it is a common problem with windows on laptops, there are various "solutions" put forward, but it appears hit and miss whether they work or not, and there doesn't seem to be a definitive solution. One Popular "remedy" is to switch on the laptop then remove the battery, then switch off the laptop, remove the mains lead, hold the on button down for ten seconds, then plug in the lead and switch on again, then insert the battery...but doesn't seem to work for most people...others include going into the battery registry.......and disabling things...
Buying a new battery doesn't solve it...so dont know if this is the same problem as yours....
