Isa pa pong question, Pag ba iniupgrade ko ang os nito dell latitude d510 to win 7 ultimate or enterprise eh maaapektohan ang performance, mas babagal po ba?

Hello xcents, good evening.

My new laptop battery is not working !! What's wrong?

New batteries are usually shipped in a discharged condition and must be charged before use. It is recommended that Li-Ion and NiCd batteries receive an initial overnight charge (approximately twelve hours), whereas NiMH requires 24hrs. Refer to your computer manual for charging instructions. Rechargeable batteries should be conditioned before normal use by ensuring they are charged and then fully discharged for the first 3 to 4 charge cycles. This allows the batteries to reach their full capacity.

Take care and God bless.

Good morning! kahit 24 hrs na sya naka charged hindi pa rin gumagana, sa tingin ko baka may sira chips sa mother board, possible po kaya yun?

parehas tayo ng problema xcents! until now di ko magamit laptop ko ng walang ac cord, binalik ko na lang luma kong battery which is much better kasi kahit pano nagchacharge siya unlike sa new battery kaya di ko na ginagamit. isa pang problem nitong laptop ko nagshashutdown randomly! kahit may cooler pad ako, sometimes nagshashutdown siya every after 3-5mins.

i am not an expert but i think the problem lies in the contact points between the battery and the laptop..

or if the laptop is already old, maybe there are defects in the laptop motherboard...

windows 7 ultimate/enterprise editions require decent hardware t run aero and other features...

when you say "cannot open laptop even when battery is full", do you mean that windows OS does not load or the laptop is unable to boot?

maybe motherboard na nga problema ng laptop ko!!ilang years ba tinatagal ng laptop?!kasi 2005 o 2007 pa yata to binili hp pavillion dv2000

3 years na ang acer laptop ko, model aspire 4720 with intel core 2 duo 1.6ghz processor, 2x512mb ddr2 memory (now replaced with 1x2gb ddr2-800), 120gb hdd, windows vista home premium x86 (now dual-booted with windows 7 home premium x64)...

aside from the battery with 50-70 minutes variable life span, my laptop is fine...able to install left4dead and left4dead2 (unplayable!!!...hehehe)

a year ago, the lcd screen "cracked" and was replaced with a compatible second-hand lcd screen (about ~12000php)...

columbia computer store (divisoria) in cagayan de oro city will accept battery replacement order for acer laptop with price of about ~4300-4800php, 3 weeks wait time for replacement order...
