    try reseting bios... though i doubt it will help. My guess would be that something is wrong with battery's innards... could just be the ram got corrupt with battery's info or something... Hard to tell for sure

    If reseting bios doesn't work, try to remove your battery, clean the dirt, and then plug it tightly. Maybe it is static electricity, happened something like this to me (or even exactly it, I don't remember well what was my message).
