    Last month I had to replace the hard drive on the laptop. It took me a couple of weeks to get all the drivers and software installed back to where it was. All that time I was using the charger. Battery was sitting off to the side. This weekend I tried to charge the battery. The battery indicator says "3 %, battery not charging." The light on the laptop is flashing Amber. I cannot get this battery to charge. I left it plugged in overnight, and still have the flashing amber light on the laptop.

    Anyone offer any help? Did I miss a driver or something?

    I got this laptop in February. So a 3 month old battery is shot?

    Sounds like it, call your reseller.
