Hi @Indignado,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Does the laptop shutdown right away if the charger is disconnected from the laptop?
Have you tried to use a different compatible charger and check if it helps?
Have you tried to update the Bios on your notebook?
Let's try re-installing the Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery
1) In the search box, type and open “Device Manager”.
2) Expand “Batteries”.
3) Right click the "Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery" that is listed there.
4) Click on “Uninstall”.
5) At the prompt put a check in the box to remove the current driver
6) Shutdown the computer.
7) Remove the battery for minute and then put it back in. When the computer comes back up it should automatically find the driver.
9) Go to Device Manager.
10) Expand Batteries.
11) Right click the "Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery" that is listed there.
12) Click "Search automatically for updated driver software". Do the same thing with Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Embedded Controller.
Also, try updating the computer - Step 1 Windows Updates -
1) In the search box, type and open Windows Updates.
2) Check for updates.
3) If the updates are available, click on Install and restart the computer.
Step 2 HP Support Assistant Updates -

Please note, if the Bios is not updated, please follow the link to download and install the latest Bios update from our HP support website, using this link.
