battery/brick troubleshooting

System Manufacturer/Model Number:dell inspiron 17 5770
OS:windows 10 pro x64 2004 version 10.0.19041 build 19041

Before going into the details, please note:
I cannot perform all the troubleshooting because of some physical limitations. I am color blind and cannot determine LED colors. An injury has left me virtually one handed and unable to perform remove/replace battery functions.

the problem:
The computer will no longer charge properly. I cannot boot or use the computer without the brick plugged in. Hovering over the battery icon (on the task tray) indicates battery 98% charged. However, unplugging the brick generates a low battery warning and subsequent shut down in less than one minute.

what I have done:

• I have unplugged/plugged in all the brick connections.
• I have calibrated the battery using the drain and recharge process.
• Dell's EPSA Preboot System Assessment yields error# 93734 (battery problem)
• I have changed power plans.
• I have uninstalled/reboot both battery drivers shown in Device Manager.

The next step appears to be to remove/install the existing battery. Then let the success/failure dictate replacement decisions regarding the battery and/or brick.

I have no desire to throw parts at the computer in attempt to solve the problem. That is not a wise solution. I have a (non-techie) friend whom I can guide through a mechanical repair if necessary. That is better than paying a shop to do what I know how to do, but am physically unable to perform.

...SO... My question is: Are there any other troubleshooting techniques I can employ before proceeding?

Thanks in advance for you replies.

regards,

I'll be adding a small page on doing this in windows vista soon, since XP is the same with a step or two less, i assume people will figure it out.

 

May 27 2018 - Windows 10 update bricked computer

An update that occurred this afternoon (5/27/18) on my wife's computer has completely bricked it. The computer is in an endless cycle of rebooting to the Windows logo with circles denoting loading, then it reboots. The computer cannot be Reset, Restored
nor entered into Safe Mode at this point. What (if anything) can be done to resolve this basically bricking of her computer by Windows?
