@someone6 Welcome to HP Community!

 

I understand that you are not getting battery backup.

 

Below I've listed a series of steps that should help your cause: 

  • Video about improving your notebook battery performance 

  • How long does a notebook battery last? 

  • Adjusting notebook battery power plans 

  • Factors that contribute to loss of notebook battery capacity 

  • Recommended notebook battery care practices 

  • Original battery charges slowly, replacement battery charges normally 

  • Special recommendations for embedded (not customer replaceable) notebook batteries 

  • Tips for conserving notebook battery power

You will need to Understand Lithium-Ion and Smart Battery Technology: Click here for details 

 

Unplug the charge and use the laptop until the battery drains to 15%. 

Turn off the laptop and turn it back on after 30mins. 

Reinstalled Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery under device manager: 
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.  

Restart the computer and the issue should be fixed. 
 

Also, please update the BIOS.
