Re: Charging Problem HP Pavilion dm4-2070us

Hi there. I have proved the charging of the battery. It seems that the notebook charges the battery but there is no way that the software (windows 7 or HP support assistant) detects the charging of the battery. When I run the battery check in the HP support assistant this cannot detect that the battery is plugged. I don't know whats happening.

Ah nop. It seems thats the icon of "charging" was lying to me. When I unpluged the AC cable the notebook turn off automatically.

No. Seems that the problem is not of Windows but is of the computer because when I turn off the computer with the battery plugged and connect the AC the light stills flashes. I tried what you said without any good result.

It will need to be diagnosed by a profession repair shop I am afraid.
