    I just got the XPS 1640 and was wondering if the battery would charge if I leave the computer off and just leave it connected to the power adapter or would I have to turn on my computer to let the battery charge???? If I don't need to turn the computer on...is it fully charged when the XPS sign at the side stops glowing white...and did you guys charge it for 12 hours the first time???? THANKS :D...
