Hi all,
I am facing this problem: I have updated my laptop (BIOS, ordinary Windows updates and many drivers), after that, the system wasn't detecting the battery any longer. So I did an hard reset and now the battery is detected but sticking at "100% charge", that means the system won't charge it and indeed it's now completely drained (but still the icon says 100%).
I tried many stuff:
- Hard reset
- Uninstalling and reinstalling Microsoft ACPI drivers
- Disconnecting the battery
- Other stuff I don't even remeber
I am pretty sure it is a (maybe complex) software/driver problem. Indeed, battery has less than one year and it was perfectly working before the updates. Also, if I run a powercfg check for the battery I get Design Capacity -1mWh which of course is an error.
Is there anyone that can help me with this?
Appreciated!
