When the power board goes you ussally get the red x in the battery icon.
At least that is what happened with mine.
You should try another battery and or try that battery in another machine.
Good luck

Any ideas?
Sure, it's time to buy a new battery. Assuming, of course, that you know for sure that your charger works. ;-)
U know, the last post did remind me of something...
When I got my 1st Comet a few months ago, the battery would only charge for a
few seconds, and then it would stop and the battery would register as either
dead or not inserted; I think the latter, if memory serves...
Anyway, it turned out to be the power board; the component that send the
power to the battery... the battery was fine.
