Question and solution for the hp laptop battery
by Laptop Battery Laptop Battery Question and solution for the hp laptop batteryQuestion: “I am getting a hp 530 battery error message in a red cross X “There is a problem with your battery, so your computer might shut down suddenly”. . Battery charge upto 100% but its duration is very low and I have to recharge it again and again after 20 minutes.You upgraded your laptop from XP or Vista to Windows7. You know that the hp laptop battery is good. But now you are getting this error message. What do you do?
I know for a fact that the battery is good. It works fine in Vista, its only about 4 months old, it lasts 2 hours +, and even in Windows 7, it will last for the same time period as it did in Vista.
People have been saying (as well as microsoft) that it is the BIOS and it needs to be updated. Well, I did obtain the latest BIOS from LG, which is dated in 2009, and that didn’t change anything. I’m concluding that it is NOT the BIOS since vista reported the estimated time left of the hp 550 battery just fine, even before the bios update, and I have the latest BIOS.
I ran the powercfg -energy command and it says that windows was not able to determine the capacity of the battery, yet if I go and install the LG batery application, it will tell me all the information about the hp mini 1000 battery.
I even went as far as to try my friend’s battery which is less than 3 weeks old, and it still gave the same error messages.
Please Microsoft, fix this issue, and if you can’t, then give the
users an option to take off/disable/supress the blinking X that is on
top of the power tray icon, and to remove both the “Consider replacing
your battery” and “There is a problem with your battery, so your
computer might shut down suddenly” messages so we don’t have to see that
every day, since the battery is in fact GOOD and works properly.”
Solution:”
I believe your problem is the charger because Dell has a build in mechanism to make sure the battery is Dell before allowing it to charge the battery. However, even if the charger is Dell, if the identifier chip inside the charger is broken, the laptop would refuse to recognize the charger and stop charging.
You can follow this Dell’s troubleshooting guide to try to get the laptop to recognize the battery. The troubleshooting guide is a bit outdated though, so I don’t know if it applies to your laptop.
If the troubleshooting does not work, most likely, you will have to buy a new hp pavilion dv2700 battery
since the laptop cannot identify the charger as Dell anymore. However,
before you buy a new charger, borrow someone else’s charger to make sure
it will charge the laptop and that is the problem for sure. I wouldn’t
want you to waste money on a part that is not necessary. Furthermore,
seeing that buying a new hp pavilion dv4 battery does not seem to solve the problem, I think that you can return the battery unless you want to keep it.
If you do have to buy a new charger, I would recommend buying one
from our website. because they offer lifetime warranty and free shipping
to all chargers at a good price. I think it is definitely worth it to
consider buying charger from them.”
