Product: HP 8740w
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
I'm fixing an Elitebook 8740w and the battery wont charge. I used a shop charger and it did not charge the battery. I bought a new charger and it did not charge the battery. Both charger did not power the unit on without the battery. I bought a battery and it started the unit but it ran out of power and everything came a to a halt.
I removed the battery and ac adapter then pressed the power button for 1 minute. Nothing changed.
Its currently connected to power. The battery charger light blinks 9 times. Any thoughts?
