Thinkpad R51 battery problem

#1 Post by Yoshiboshi3 » Fri Dec 11, 2009 12:29 am

My battery has a weird problem.

First off, it never SAYS its charging. Ever. However, when it's plugged in, the battery power slowly climbs. I had purchased this laptop used. I downloaded that one Battery MaxiMiser thing that I thought would help, and it says my battery health is Red. I'm pretty sure this is the problem, but can anyone verify?

Per IBM/Lenovo, the red battery indicator means that the battery needs replacement.
