Battery Indicator Showing Plugged In But Not Charging
May 3, 2011
I have a peculiar problem with my laptop, The battery indicator shows, "Plugged in, Not Charging" even though the power supply is there and the percentage remains at a particular level.
I've got a problem, my battery wont charge.I used to get this, but re installing ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery would normally solve this problem. Now after i remove ac, the laptop shuts down. I also got a screen once that saying my battery can now store less. When I click on the battery icon, it says plugged in and not charging.
I re-formatted my laptop today, and now the battery icon says "Plugged in, not charging" for most of the time. If I remove the battery/powersupply/reinstall driver it works for a minute or so, then goes back to this.Pretty sure it's software related, as this happened exactly after a windows re-install.
having battery indicator hpid09 display on my hp computer at boot up,saying ther was an error,i repaced the battery,but i still had the warning on boot up.having tried different methods to get rid of this message,i gave up,i had to clean up my start up programmes in ccleaner which is a free down load i have used for years and is safe and easy to use,open ccleaner up ,go to tools then start up ,look for battery indicator in list and highlight it then disable.i then booted my computer up ,the message has not reappeard since.
My battery indicator on WIN 7 has started showing 100% constantly and then the laptop will die when the battery does. This is a fairly recent development.
The battery indicator in the taskbar on my Thinkpad Edge bar is huge, almost as wide as two application buttons. My old HP the indicator was much smaller. I know how to disable it, but is there a way to display a smaller battery indicator, like in the system tray?
i know the general solution to the problem "uninstall Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery" and all but like an idiot.i uninstalled mine in safe mode = its not showing up again like it would once you scan for hardware changes I need a way to get my Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery back because now I have TWO problems.. 1, still won't charge.. and 2, I cannot see the battery icon or enable it and don't have my Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery
I recently got a new HP laptop with Windows 7 pro installed. When the battery is 95-99% it does not charge. It say PLUGGED in NOT CHARGING.I got replacement laptop and that also have same issue. I tried with new AC adaptor and same issue. I uninstall Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery and same issue. Googled as well and tried but nonthing seems to be working. Plugged in, not charging on HP Business Notebook plugged in not charging after Win 7 install, I contacted HP again and they said that some issue might be with system board.I took 10 days to transfer data to this laptop with all s/w.
my lappy was working fine with win 7 ultimate 32 bit but but but..so i didn't used the lappy and after a few months when turned it on without AC adapter it didn't turn on. so i connected to ac adapter and when i loged in, the battry icon said "0% pluged in not chraging".
2 days ago my battery stoped charging it says "plugged in not charging" i took the battery out to work with the ac adapter,but my laptop runs very slow now!
I fixed the "plugged in not charging" problem very easily. Unplug your laptop, remove the battery, hold down the "Start" button for 30 seconds. I put it back together and it worked. The guy at Alienware support told me that static builds up inside the computer. I did what he said and the problem was over
I have a 3 month old Del XPS 15z,I charged the battery and used it till it was drained I plugged in the AC adapter and i noticed as soon as i plug it in the little green light on the adopter goes off and the battery wont charge,my battery is drained and i can noteven turn the laptop on,does anyone know what i should do ? any one from Dell ?By the way i tried the AC adopter with another laptop and it works,so it should be OK.
I have a laptop Presario B1200, I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate. The problem of Battery charging had start from here. It works directly. If I plugged it out directly, the laptop get off without proper shut down.
I have just purchased a new battery for my Fujitsu Amilo pi 3660 notebook.
I have tried so many times to charge it. I have fuilly discharged it and recharged it. I have installed and reinstalled drivers. No matter what I do, it stops charging at exactly 45%.
I know the battery is sound and the problem is a software issue. Does anyone know how to change this cap on the battery. BTW The new battery has slightly, (very) more capacity. This has not been a problem in other laptops, but this Fujitsu certainly caps the charge at 45%
I have had problems once or twice with my battery, but not for a long time. I installed Windows 7 a couple of days ago and twice today my battery stopped charging even though it was plugged in. The first time it said it was plugged in but not charging. The second time it said nothing. Both times, I rebooted and it resumed charging.
My Acer Extensa 5230E stopped charging so I purchased a new charger, thisn didnt work so I installed a new battery. The laptop came on but battery wasn't charging up.
Every 10 seconds or so, Windows will think my charger is unplugged. Then, it will proceed to switch back and fourth between plugged in and not, forcing my laptop to switch between power modes. (I'm guessing this is stress on the CPU and I do not want it to have to do that all the time)It's getting annoying having to deal with my laptop getting hot and such because of the switching power modes.
Yesterday I encountered a problem. My Dell laptop not charging. But is showing in notification area charger plug in but not charging. I check my battery heath from bios. It's showing battery health normal. But adapter type showing as a unknown. I am confused If my adapter is going to dead, then why it is showing "plug in" in notification area
I had a big blip that showed up on the screen telling me that to lengthen the life of the battery, I needed to change my power.It gave me 2 choices - one was Dell recommended. No explanation so I chose the "recommended" setting.I discovered that even though I was still plugged in, my taskbar showed me operating on battery.When I opened the pc today, it was still on battery even though it was plugged in.Later in the day, it automatically switched over electricity.I'm assuming this is the way it's supposed to work but I've done searches on Power Settings etc and if I wanted to revert back to the way I was using the battery I can't find it. I even did a "restore" and it didn't change.Where do I find the setting that refers to this selection?
I haven't verified this yet, but I wondered if it's a possible bug?
I bought a Dell XPS M1330 over a year ago and it came preloaded with Vista Home Premium. Since I want to keep the batteries in good condition I run the laptop with no battery connected and AC plugged in whenever it sits on my desk at home.
However, in Windows 7 it seems that Windows wants to put the laptop to sleep after 10-15 minutes if I do this. Since I have various USB devices plugged in, especially external storage, this is a problem. It goes away if I run with the battery plugged in but like I said, not verified yet.

Yesterday I had a Dell service onsite service technician come to my house to work on my computer. He replaced my palm rest, keyboard, touchpad and mousebuttons, and my WLAN card (had a V key missing, left mouse button was not working, and was having issues with high-bandwidth internet connectivity). Since he replaced these, my computer has stopped being able to charge. Unfortunately I did not notice this until after he left. My warranty expired August 23rd and I opened the previous warranty service before it expired.
So far I have flashed my bios, deleted and redownloaded the driver for the Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery in the Device Manager, shut off my computer without the battery and wiggled the charging jack to check whether it was a connection issue, and I have used an identical charger to the one I have. None of these have caused any change.
My laptop wouldn't boot yesterday, the fan came on and the 'on' led came one, it beeped when I plugged in the charger but nothing on the screen and no post beeps etc. I let the battery drain fully, plugged it back in once it powered off and it booted fine. I shut it down last night and it did the same today on boot up, nothing. Again, discharging the battery fully brought it back.
