New battery is not detected on Satellite A300

Hello every body
I had this problem with my laptop Satellite A300 (PSAJ4E). I bought a new battery and started my laptop. I have Windows Vista.
The battery is not detected. When I remove the charger its work well but with indicator of low battery so Im update my BIOS but the problem is still there.
So I look around and tried to disable Microsoft in device manger.
Still not fixed properly. I removed charger and insert it again.
It shows the AC power supply but no charge.

hi king_soft,
sold a third party battery?
in some cases the used controller (battery) is not recognised by your system...
you can try this (without any promisses):
shut down notebook, remove battery, connect ac-adapter and make sure unit is powered
insert battery and wait 24hours
disconnect ac-adapter and remove battery
switch machine on to make it fully discharged (some components holding electricity)
insert battery and start the unit
check powermanager or energy options if the battery is recognised...
never open up a battery pack - it's really dangerous!
if the battery pack is recognised by the system - you won!
if not make sure that your ac-adapter supplies the right voltage/current to your system
test another battery to make sure the loading device (notebook) is working properly
if so exchange battery pack!
editing: found a info that the highest rated cpu is a Intel Celeron -M 380 (1.60GHz)

MacBook Pro 13 Early 2011 Battery Degradation to Not Detected, User Replaced New Battery also Not Detected, Please Help!

I have a MBP early 2011 13 inch and do not have Apple Care. After I installed Mountain Lion I noticed the battery health was dropping pretty rapidly, with a service battery warning. I tried resetting the SMC and PRAM and even a clean install. I took it into an Apple store and they said I should have cycled it more, but I could still use it. The health dropped and dropped until a battery would not even be detected. Because Apple would not replace it for me for free and I didn't want to pay for them to do so, I bought my own battery. Once I replaced the battery with the new one, it still says there is no battery connected.
When I detach the battery and then attach it again, the battery indicator lights on the side show 4 dots. When I plugged in the MagSafe connector, the fifth light started blinking (I thought it was charging) and then it went back to all of them blinking indicating no battery detected. The computer also automatically turned on when I connected the MagSafe.
I have tired multiple times to reset PRAM and SMC even after installing the new battery to no avail. I can use the machine with the MagSafe connected, but as soon as the cord is unplugged or bumped, it goes into the emergency sleep mode.
Any thoughts on what might be ailing this not yet two year old machine? My first Mac lasted 7 years before any logic board fail so I hope that is not it. Anything I should try that I haven't yet? Any ideas on what this might cost me through Apple?
Thanks!

Why don't you look through this to insure you did everything correctly:

New battery is not working on Satellite C855-29N

I purchased a battery.
I've put it in to the laptop and the battery light is just flashing orange.
I tried removing the ac adaptor and battery and holding down the power butter for 30-40 seconds before putting the new battery back in again, plugging in the ac and pressing the power button but nothing is happening. It just carries on blinking orange.
I did a comparison against the batteries and both have the same numbers and codes.
I just don't understand why it won't work :(
Please help!!

Even if there was a right part number, I guess you purchased some kind of cheap china battery and probably the new part isnt good.
Therefore I have no other solution for you as to replace the battery once again and to purchase genuine battery for this Toshiba notebook.

Hello halik
It is not easy to say what is wrong there.
Have you bought new and original Toshiba battery with the same part number (model number).
Is new battery recognized by the system?

New Oracleasm Libraries not detecting ASM drives consistently

Has anyone run into problems with the new Oracle ASMLib not detecting ASM drives on load and on scandisks commands? My /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm is the standard defaults that I used with the previous version of ASMLib, i.e. I do not specify the exclude or scanorder.
I have noticed that if I run scandisk while specifying the LUN in question, then ASMLib will detect the drive properly. I have also noticed that if I run the "scandisks" multiple times (100's), then it will at times find the proper ASM disks. I have played with various settings in the /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm file as well with no luck on getting consistent ASMLib detection.
The workaround I have for now is to put a "oracleasm scandisks /dev/sd*1" into my /etc/rc.d/rc.local file.
System is HP BL460c running Red Hat 5.2 with QLogic Driver version 8.01.07.25-fo

Sergio,
My issue is with the 2.0.5 Version of ASMLib. Previously, I was using oracleasm-2.6.18-92.el5-2.0.4-1.el5.x86_64.rpm. Please see the first section of the screen output for the complete list or Oracleasm installed rpms (latest from OTN). Also, this node was after an immediate OS build with no databases or other activity being done on the node while I attempt to scandisks. I can't imagine that I have drives being repeatedly open/closed.
I do have the following in my /var/log/oracleasm file, but the running of oracleasm was done by the root user and the permissions on the devices have not really changed between 2.0.5 and the older 2.0.4 that I have been using.

A secondary battery was not detected, but your system supports a second battery.

Hi,
I have read this while testing my battery with HP tools dignostics:
Secondary Battery: a battery was not detected, but your system supports a second battery. You may want to purchase a second battery to extend your battery life between charges
What is meant with your system supports a second battery?
I think this 'your system supports a second battery' should have been said if my computer supported two batteries insereted simulataneously.
However, if this 'your system supports a second battery.' only means if the first battery got to its critical level, then I could shut down my computer, and then replace it with the second one which is fully charged.
As a result, I would be saying that my system supports a second battery, a third, fourth, fifth, and so on. I don't need to say my system supports a second battery.

Thanks a lot,
Then, for my laptop which only supports to insert on battery at the same time. Then as long as the secondray battery will not be inserted along with the primary battery at the same time, then my system and my computer don't support secondary battery. However, they support only one battery inserted. As a result, They wouldn't have said(written) a tip says during the battery testing 'secondary battery was not deteced, but your system supports a second battery.'
that they should have written system supports a second battery, a third, fourth, fifth, and so on which can be inserted instead of your inserted empty primary battery.
I really don't find any a docking station port on the bottom of my laptop. Do you think that there are some HP models can support two batteries to be inserted at the same time?

Battery is not detected in Equium U400-124

Hi Guys,
I bought a U400-124 yesterday and replaced it today for the same model and i still have the same problem.
The notebook works fine when its conected to AC power but as soon as i unplug it the notebook dies ? Its not the charger thats the problem, i have changed that also. On the icon that tells you if the battery is charging or not it says "Battery is not detected"
Does anyone have an idea why this happens ? All help would be hugely appreciated.

Hey man
I bought a Toshiba Equium U400 too. And i faced the same problem.
So I took it to the ASP (Authorized Service Provider) and they said it was not the laptops problem it was the problem of the battery.
So as I had a warranty I changed my battery and its running great..
Try my idea and your going to be happy..
So go to a Toshiba reseller or buy your battery online.
So you did a wrong thing changing you laptop should have changed your battery... happy to help and tell me if u have any other problem.
Bye

Ideapad U410 Refurb from outlet - "Battery is not detected"

Hey everyone,
I recently purchased a refurbished Ideapad U410 touch from the lenovo outlet website and received it a few days ago. I charged the laptop and it says "battery is not detected" in the notification area. Once I unplug the charger, the laptop will instantly shut off and can't be used unless there is a charger connected. From what I understand, the battery can be missing, wires disconnected or faulty, or the battery is completely dead. Since I purchased it just over a week ago, I have a 21 day full warranty and another limited 1 year warranty on top of that.
I've contacted lenovo support over the phone and have been redirected in circles over 5 times without being able to get a replacement or ship it back. I don't want to remove the bottom cover either since that will void my warranty. Can someone please help me out with a direct number or who to contact? I've been told Post Sales Support is the correct department but I can't seem to ever reach it....
Thanks in advance,
Mitchell

SATELLITE P300-13J
Tryed to download bios, and 30sc power button trick still nothing changes

> when i restart my laptop , first of all it says , plugged in not charging after a minute of 2 it says no accu detected
You should use the battery which was explicitly designed for this notebook model. Some retailers sells not genuine parts, also batteries and the mentioned problems can appear if you would use of not fully compatible battery pack.
At the other hand, if you purchased compatible battery, it may take some time to detect the empty battery. You should connect the AC adaptor and should charge the battery for a longer period of time.
If the battery would not be detected, even if the AC adaptor was connected for 2-4 hours, the battery should be replaced.

New battery isn't detected on Equium A300D-16C

Hi,
This is my first post on the site. I have an issue with a new battery on my Equium A300D-16C. (no battery detected)
The original one that I had for the computer died after two years of use so I had to order a new one as a replacement. I have received it and it itself works fine, giving me 90 minutes charge. But the problem is that it isnt detected by the computer when I click on the power icon on the bottom bar of screen, so I dont know how long I have left with it. Also, the orange light that indicates it is charging should go white upon it being full of charge, mine just starts flashing orange after a while (is this when it is fully charged?).
I took the mains out of my computer a few minutes ago and it cut out and I had to switch it back on again, despite the battery being in and it being full of charge (as it has been in all day and the mains have been in for decent length periods).
What can I do to solve this?
Worth mentioning I am not too good with computers so everything might be best explained really, really simply as I am not the cleverest when it comes to this area.
thanks

> Now when i take the mains power out, the computer cuts out and shuts off within minutes without it being able to be turned back on
Seems the battery is empty and therefore notebook shuts down when AC adaptor has been disconnected.
There are two possibilities:
Either the new battery is faulty or there is something wrong with motherboard power supply electronic.
I think both should be checked.

NEED HELP, old hard disk failed, new hard disk not detected.

My hard disk died, not working, not detected when I restart with the MacOS X DVD and attempt to reinstall.
I have bought a new hard drive, 160 GB ATA - IDE Samsung drive, and carefully replaced it following service manual instructions. All connectors have been carfully but firmly reconnected, and the new hard disk is not detected.
What can i do?? where is the problem??
Thank you very much for your help.

Do you know that the new hard drive is working? As it's new chances are it is, just asking .... do you know it's powering up? If you replug the old not working hard drive in, is it recognized? (this is where you don't put the computer back together, but just replace the hard drive and sort of close it back up, but don't use any bolts close the case). Plus you can feel or clearly hear if the drive is starting up or not.

Help w macbook 10.6.8 bought new battery A1185 not working

I need help! I bought my macbook in early 2009 and my battery stopped working about 2 years ago and in the meantime I updated the system to Snow Leopard so now it is Mac OS X version 10.6.8. I bought online a genuine apple battery model A1185 (i pulled out the original battery and that was the model number) . Now i have put in the new battery but my computer doesnt recognise that its there and has a X in the battery symbol on the top of the screen. The power cord is a green colour except for when i turn it off and then it turns orange. So I left the battery in and the cord connected overnight while it was turned off with the orange light on thinking that the new battery must be charging but today when i checked it (over 12 hours later) the battery symbol still shows an X and when i disconnect the power cord the computer loses all power indicating that it is not registered that there is a battery there.
Also when I remove the new battery and press the small button only one of the five green lights, light up. I also have been browsing this issue online and saw some reference to the old macbook battery not working with the new system 10.6 so i did a software update but still not working. Any help greatly appreciated!

Z10 will not charge & with new Battery will not turn on

I have have had my Z10 about a month now, I am gernerally happy with it as a work phone which is similar to my private Iphone5. Unfortunately the Battry life has been reducing on a weekly basis to around 4 hrs between charges. Now it is dead and will not wake up, so I bought a new Battery, now it blinks once the three times but will not turn on.
Any ideas ? The OS is the latest on the Blackberry site, but as I can turn the phone on I can't be more specific.

Hello,
From your description, if your charger is "known good" (e.g., it can charge other devices), then one can only deduce that something (hardware) inside the BB related to passing power from the charger to the battery has broken. Or that something passing power from the battery to the device has broken.
Regardless, if your charger is 100% fine, then it sounds like a hardware problem for which no amount of OS/software level fixes nor internet-distance diagnostics can be of much value.
I recommend you seek formal support via your official warranty channel. Normally, that starts with your original place of purchase or an authorized service center -- it varies by region.
Good luck!

KDE battery monitor not detecting laptop battery

I am using KDE on my Dell XPS laptop. The default battery monitor that comes with KDE installation is not detecting the laptop battery. It is showing "Battery: Not Present". Because of this I am unaware about the time remaining on my battery. Any solutions please?

Have you tried rebooting *twice*? I've seen this issue but I've always resolved it by rebooting and then rebooting again. (The system goes rather insane on the first reboot and I always think either my hardware is completely screwed or my install of Arch is twisted far beyond the point of insanity. But then on the second boot, it calms down, finds the hardware and carries on quite happily. I've no idea why.)
