    I had recently bought a U305-S5077. Everything works fine but the battery meter. I had set the critical battery level to 2% and sleep as action. However, the battery meter never goes down to 2% but remains at 6% until my laptop suddenly shut down because of battery out.

    I've check all the settting, remove the battery from device manager, re-install...etc. but still no luck to get rid of this problme.

    Anyone has same experience or solution? Thanks.

    When the critical battery level had been set upper than 6%, it will goes into sleep without any problem but just don't understand why the meter never goes any further than 6%.
