Hello All,
I would love some feedback on an old PII Compaq laptop. Since the battery is not holding much anymore, I have been using it basically as a desktop, having it hooked up to the power at all times. It was working fine until a month ago. Now the battery will not charge at all. I tried other identical batteries but the behavior is the same. The laptop will stay on while there's juice on the battery and that's all, although the light indicating that power is connected in on.
Nevertheless, the battery will charge if I place the laptop in the docking station. It will work great while it is in the docking station. If I remove it and plug it directly to the power cable(yes, I also tried other power cords) , it will work only for as long as the battery has charge.
Any Ideas??
Thanks CD
