Plugged In, Not Charging (Windows 7)
Posted in Internet, Microsoft, Technical Support | No Comments »
Sometimes, I make fun of keywords on Google, I even tweet photos of commonly used words but anyways, let’s get to the bottom line, I notice that this error appears after installing updates (I am currently using Acer) and sometimes when I transfer to another outlet. I have no idea why I get this error every now and then- and I don’t have time to research, what’s important is that I resolved it every time, and in less than 5 minutes. There are a lot of instructions online, that’s why I posted that photo. But just in case their steps did not work- try this:
- Disconnect the adapter.
- Shutdown with battery only.
- Remove the battery and power on using the adapter only.
- Uninstall this from Device Manager –> ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery.
- Shutdown and disconnect the adapter.
- Drain the power from your machine (hold down the power button for few seconds, like 10 or 20 )
- Put the battery back, turn on the machine (without the adapter).
- Connect the adapter and check if the battery icon is moving and says that its charging.
- Goodluck.
Okay, if the above steps didn’t solve your problem, go to Bing or install XP <- the best.
