    My battery light was blinking tonight when I plugged my Inspiron 1420 in to charge it. But not blue and amber like the "too hot to charge" warning, just flashing blue. What's up with that?

    Either your battery is to hot or dead.

    The manual says that's a blue and amber blink, this is just blue. Although this morning it was normal for a bit, then started to blink.
