    Hi. I have a BenQ Joybook Lite U101 and I have recently bought a new battery since the original one was already broken. I was using it while the AC adapter was connected. A few minutes later the screen was flickering. I checked the power options and it seemed that my laptop was changing between recognizing that the battery is connected and not. The battery was at that time had about 52% charge. To stop the flickering, I disconnected the AC adapter but the laptops went off. I tried to turn my laptop on with just the battery, just with AC adapter, and both, but nothing works. Is there a way to fix this? Please help, thanks in advance.

    P.S. The battery is in good condition. I tried it on another laptop and it works. So it must be the battery or my laptop?
