Recently my Dell Latitude D610 Laptop will not charge it will work on its cord but it will not charge at all!

Sometimes when i start it i get a error message that says something like "Unknown AC Power Source,Strike F1 to continue, F2 For Boot Menu, Strike F3 To Not See This Error Message Again":eek:


What Can I Do To Make My Laptop Charge Again, It's Getting Annoying Taking My Cord EveryWhere With Me!!:mad:

Oh...And I Know Its Not The Battery Because The Battery Is Only One Month Old????


PLEASE HELP!!!!

The battery is dead. This is most likely caused by leaving it in hibernate and not charging it for a while, thus letting it drain completely; I've gone through two batteries on my school laptop already, it happens a lot.

=P I guess it wasn't fully dead, just needed a while to charge. Glad to see it's working again =)

The cells in the battery have died. You need to buy a new battery.
You can prevent this by charging the battery full and then letting it run out, otherwise known as a "cycle."

I've left my laptop in hibernate for weeks on the battery and it's not affected it.

How many cells does it have? I'm guessing it's not a standard 6-cell...


Also, ctrl.alt.the_leet, his battery isn't dead -.- I wish people would read before posting...
