Thanks. I just checked all that, it kept running on AC power, but battery
only it did nothing, sigh.

Hi
On my one HP laptop, the cable has a tendency to feel like it is
plugged in even when it is not. I always have to double check it. One way
to see if your charger is plugged in is to pop the battery out while your
computer is plugged in. If your computer stays running, you are definitely
connected to wall power.
A second issue I have run in to is when something happens to the
charger. I have managed to break the cable on several chargers. It never
hertz to have a second charger just in case.
God bless,
Mark

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Laptop Battery vrs AC Power
I have noticed of late, that while in my system's tray, one item states I
have 80% battery power and today it shows a message saying, I need to change
my battery.
I have the laptop plugged in at all times, so shouldn't it state it's on AC
power rather than battery?
Is there a button on the laptop that could have been flipped to battery vrs
AC, or is this a setting within the computer I need to check?
This laptop is an ASUS running windows 7 Home.
Any help appreciated..
Trish
