    Hey guys.
    My laptop is acting very strange. When not connected to a power source, it shuts off with about 42% remaining, and windows 7 tells me there might be a battery problem.
    I am assuming this is a battery, and not another, problem. Has anyone had problems like this with their dv5 yet?
    Its disappointing because I've had my laptop for a little over a year, and this is will be the second item I have had to have fixed.
