    It is in your BIOS, under power options (?). There will be a Battery Calibration Utility in it. Follow the instructions onscreen to calibrate your battery. Basically it charges and discharges the battery, recalibrating the battery level marks.

    It will vary by computer and it will vary based on the wear level of the battery. Just be sure to leave it so it can do a full calibration.
