    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me with my battery charging issue. I've had the M1330 for 4 years now and recently I noticed my battery was going out. It would fully charge but last only maybe 30 minutes before I would need to charge again. I decided to ebay an after market battery. With the new one, it says it is charging but the % stays at zero. Once I unplug the charger, the laptop just dies. I had it charge overnight. Did I just happen get a bad battery? Thanks

    I had that problem with the M1530. It's either your motherboard or adapter. Mine happened to be my motherboard. They gave me a replacement laptop instead.
