1213776 2011-07-01 04:56:00 The windows 7 battery bar is always at 100% until the laptop gets to 6% battery or less. How can i fix this? as the battery runs for a good two hours while on youtube and listening to music. goodiesguy (15316)
1213777 2011-07-01 05:04:00 how long has it been doing this?

Dont think thats the issue, its the battery alert thats giving the wrong info on battery life.

1213782 2011-07-01 07:20:00 It's probably around 5 years old.

Its a Compaq Presario C300 (302TU)

I've used the battery in my old win xp presario v2000 and it's read correctly on that.

1213783 2011-07-01 07:26:00 I suppose it's better than the battery always being at 0% :p pcuser42 (130)
