my Dell insprion 1501 was showing a messag everytime i turned it on "Battery nor recognised, system will be unsable to charge battery" However, i pressed enter, ignored this messgae and it was fine. the other day i turned it on, had the same message and this time it didnt charge up. The led on the Adapter is still green. someone told be to run a bios from the dell Website (A16 i think), in the process of running this bios my computer shut down and wont turn back on? any solutions? Do i buy a new adapter and Battery? or is it the motherboard? or entirly different issue?
No lights or noise from computer
Thanks Amanda

Bios updates should only be performed if the update directly addresses the problem you are experiencing. A failed Bios update can render a Mobo useless.
The message could have been a warning the battery was failing.
Try clearing the CMOS and then attempt to boot with the battery removed.
