Hello,
This problem has persisted for about 6 months for my parents older laptop, so they asked me to find a solution. They have an ACER Aspire 3680. The manufacturer's battery died about a year ago, so they stopped using the laptop for awhile. My father purchased a new OEM battery at a computer store that was compatible based on the battery # for their model. He installed the battery turned on the computer with the AC adapter plugged in. After boot, the battery icon said "No battery found". It will still run with AC adapter plugged in, but powers off immediately if the AC adapter is removed. Any help would be appreciated
