    hi guys
    i bought an hp dv5t laptop about 7 months ago.my laptop battery has been working fine since then.few days back it has has started to give me problems.sometimes it refuses to charge when ac power is connected e.g it stays on lets say 20% even though its been on AC for a long time.well sometimes it charges normally without any problems.also i have noticed that it charging time has increased a lot from about 25 minutes to 40 min.
    is there anyting wrong with the battery or is my ac adapter faulty?how can i improve my battery condition?

    LMAO! similar thing happens to my dv5t battery too. I have to unplug and replug it a couple of times before it works. Try to send it back for using ur warranty.
