Its possible the battery has had enough, and is failing. Trying to carry on with a dud battery, especially when its needed is asking for trouble.

My laptop is 8 years old, and the battery in just starting to lose its normal charge over the last few months. Guess its done well eh!

1205831 2011-06-02 00:36:00 Sounds like the battery is faulty in some way. If it is, you're probably lucky it didn't explode as they seem to like doing sometimes... Agent_24 (57)
1205832 2011-06-02 08:23:00 looks like it's gonna cost about $100 for a replacement. not such a bad hit to the wallet

not sure when it will arrive
