I'm going to guess your laptop is over one, closer to two years old. I would think that it is about time to "consider replacing the battery". A battery for your laptop shouldn't be too expensive and can be found through Acer or Amazon or Ebay or...

Acer knows that their Aspire Laptops have battery failures and they still sell them without fixing the problem. The only resolution is to spend your own money shipping the Laptop back to them and wait two weeks to get it back. They know there are problems and the elected to keep shipping faulty product because it's cheaper than fixing it. Acer believes it's cheaper because most people don't understand PC's. DO NOT BUY ACER LAPTOPS!!!
