    OK here is my problem. My m15x has been running fine since I've had it. The past few weeks however I've started having problems with it. It's been shutting its self off and whenever it comes unplugged from the charger it shuts itself off. I've tried a power drain and that didn't work. I've done the f2 thing, but after I press it to enable battery charging it turns it off again. Also, the indicator light on the battery itself wont turn off. The charge showing on the computer is 42% available (plugged in, charging). since the light on the battery its self wont't turn off I'd assume its something with the battery. Any suggestions?
