My laptop wouldn’t turn on. I discovered one of the transistors was blown. I installed another transistor and the computer works great except the battery isn’t showing that it is charging. The computer/windows 10 recognizes the battery is there, but not that it is charging even though the battery IS charging. I’m not sure if this is a hardware or a software problem… does anyone know how to fix it?…. Remember, it IS charging so any fix for batteries that won’t charge will not work (I’ve already tried). Thanks!
The easiest thing to try is a different power adapter. You might also be able to go into BIOS setup and it might tell you if it recognizes the power adapter or not. You may also try: Uninstall the battery device driver and reinstall Update BIOS Hard reset the Windows 10 device, be careful with this method, you’d better back up your computer before doing this.
It sounds as if all the juice from the battery is drained due to continuous use. You will likely need to buy a new battery for the laptop. Before you buy one, bring it into the place of purchase to see if they can troubleshoot it for you.
