HP 6350b Laptop is my battery really dead or is it a software problem
- by Datapimp23
I installed windows 7 and noticed that the battery status was "plugged in, not charging". I tried unplugging the battery, uninstalling the microsoft ACPI compliant Control Method, updating bios,windows. All to no avail. at first I tought it was related to windows 7 because it's a brand new laptop. But I also tested with a knoppix live cd, and there the output of acpi -V is this
Battery 0: Unknown, 0%
What else can I test to figure out what's going on.
