Please try

 

  • Open Device Manager (with both AC power and battery connected).
  • Expand the battery section.
  • Uninstall all components listed here.
  • Shut down the notebook.
  • Remove battery and AC power.
  • Press and hold power button for one full minute.
  • Put battery back (not AC).
  • Boot the notebook and allow Windows to reinstall the drivers.

Regards.
