    Why won't my battery charge?


    Why won't my battery charge? I tried 3 batteries and tested good voltage on the power supply. Tried calibration and looked for drivers. This started probably 6 months ago.

    I have a HP Pavilion, model T558P44.


    Thanks, Jim

    :)

    Install latest versions of your laptop device drivers you can download the latest device drivers from the device manufacturer or from your laptop manufacturer website.
