The "Primary Internal Battery (601)" error typically indicates that your laptop's main battery is experiencing issues. Here's how you can address this problem:
Steps to Resolve:
Power Cycle Your Laptop:
- Shutdown your laptop.
- Remove the battery (if removable) and disconnect the power adapter.
- Press and hold the power button for about 15-30 seconds to discharge any residual power.
- Re-insert the battery, reconnect the power adapter, and power it back on.
Check Battery Health:
- For HP laptops, use the HP Support Assistant software to check the battery's health. This tool provides details about your battery's status and whether it needs replacement.
