Charging Problem

[Marumo]

Hello, I have a constant charging issue with my laptop:

1. After I have connected my charger, it chargers for a little while then stops. It charges again for a little while then stops again. It repeatedly does this stop and go till it's fully charged. When it stops charging, the charging light on the left becomes white as if it's full, while it's not.

2. Secondly, it's no longer able to assess the battery. It will just shut down unexpectedly without warning me like before. It's well updated.

Would anyone know what causes this.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

• Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
• When was the last time it worked fine?

While you respond to that, let's try these steps: 

Hard Reset: Follow the steps from the link: https://hp.care/2GnkMa8. (Refer to the removable and sealed battery)
BIOS default:(do not skip any troubleshooting steps even if you feel steps are repeating)

1. Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
2. Press the Power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the F10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
3. On the BIOS Setup screen, press F9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
4. Press F10 to Save and    Exit.
5. Use the arrow keys to select Yes, then press Enter when asked to Exit Saving Changes?
6. Follow the prompts to restart your computer.

If the issue persists, continue with these steps:

• 1. Go to Start, search for Device Manager, and open this result.
• 2. Expand batteries.
• 3. Right-click on the ACPI option (usually the 2nd option) and select delete or uninstall. Follow the prompts.
• 4. Shut down the computer. 
• 5. Disconnect the charger.
• 6. Remove the battery. (only for removable battery)
• 7. Hold down the power button for 1 minute.
• 8. Insert the battery only. (only for removable battery)
• 9. Attempt to turn the battery on.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
