This is killing me to no end.
On Saturday I got a new battery for my computer. Everything was working fine, till today.
I used up nearly all my battery when I was at another building, so I hibernated my computer and went back to my dorm room to charge. But when I went to charge, it kept saying "plugged in and not charging". I tried to unplug and then plug again, but that didn't work. Then all of the sudden it tells me there's no battery. That happened yesterday, but I fixed it by taking out and putting the battery in again (took a few tries). I did that again, and for a while it "charges", but there's no % and eventually it stops charging and says there's no battery detected. I already did that a few times, but it still won't properly charge. Restarting my computer did not help.
What is going on?? :/
I had to get a new battery because the old one had problems. Occasionally the computer will shut down suddenly. The old battery died out quickly, and it didn't tell me the amount of time left. My laptop's model is Acer Aspire.
I can revert back to my old battery, but I won't be able to use it for a very long time without a charger, not to mention the occasional unexpected shut down.
EDIT: okay, I've unplugged and replugged, and the red x is gone. But it's still not charging
EDIT #2: Temporarily reverted to old battery. Gonna tell my mom about the new battery's problem, she said if there's any problem to tell her and she'll return it and I think buy a new one -_-
