    I just bought a brand new t41. It is a great notebook the performance is top of the line. But I think something is wrong with charging.
    Before calling IBM I've decided to figure something, prabobly it is an easy fix and I dont have to wait for replacement or whatever they recomend me. So the problem is sometimes 'not all of the time, when I charge the battery the windows power meter tells me that the power is plugged in but the battery is not charging. It happens when the battery level is around 90 - 100 %. I thought it could be some property or maybe IBM BatteryMaximazer. Sometimes IBM BatteryMaximizer
    doesn't actually show that the battery is charging but the windows powermeter is. In that case I just restart batterymaximizer and then it picks up the actual procces.
    I just wanted to know if anyone had the same problem and what you guys did to fix it. Thank you
