I have a Toshiba satellite A75 for about 3 years. The battery was a bit weak and giving backup only about 30-40 minutes. One day suddenly the battery seemed to have dies, the laptop just didn't start on battery, though the charge meter showed battery as 100%.
Thinking this to be a battery problem I brought a new one, the battery charged from 71% to 100% but as sson as I removed the AC adapter to see the battery working, the laptop shuts down (I mean just goes off, not the windows shut down). It doesn;t work on battery at all.
What is the problem??
