Hi Jim,

 

The error 'Primary (internal) Battery (601)' does indicate that your notebooks main Lithium Ion battery is showing signs of wear and you may want to consider replacing it - the 601 error typically occurs when the storage capacity has fallen below 25% of its original value.

 

Further information on this can be found on the following HP document.
