    My battery won't charge beyond 80%


    I've asked this issue on other Discord channels, but I wanted to post it here.
    My model is HP, and entering my model number lists it as Energy Star. Yesterday, this problem has been starting.

    So my problem is...My battery will not charge beyond around 80%. It can charge, yes, but the issue is that it only charges up to around 78-80%, then it starts charging spontaneouly. When the laptop stops charging, the LED is white, despite not being fully charged, and if I replug the charger, the LED is still white. Yesterday, I had this dreadful 'Plugged in, not charging' issue, and I temporarily fixed it alongside with the repeated charging and got my laptop to charge to 100%, but the problem reappeared today. *Mad

    What is strange that when I asked a user, he replied that the laptop is trying to protect itself from further damage by doing this. What is his logic? I tried the HP diagnosis, and it reported that my battery is healthy and all OK. It doesn't need any battery replacing - besides, my battery is internal so I can't remove it.

    I have tried hard reset, and uninstalling battery drivers (Microsoft). Nothing fixed it. I fear my battery might be damaged, but then again could be just my charger. I can't remember when I bought it but it was 3 or 4 years ago and it might be going away soon.

    :)

  2. battery not charging or 1 minute to full charge


    Doesn't seem to be the charger cause - after last time of unloading and reloading the battery monitoring software and taking and putting the battery back in, without touching the charger - then the battery charged up to 100%. Tried all the other stuff too - to no avail. It's just pretty weird with the inconsistencies - sometimes the techniques suggested on the forums work - and sometimes they don't. Pretty frustrating. Interesting though that Windows 8.1 had same issue, so I won;t try going back there to solve the problem. I'm beginning to think that there is some incompatibility between Dell laptops and Windows drivers that is at the root of this -but not so often that either company thinks that a fix is in order.
