    If I startup my Vaio FW11S (comparable with FW190) when it has been fully charged, it shows 93% battery when booted into Vista.

    When I don't the laptop for a few days with AC unplugged it leaks about 10 % or more a day.

    Is this normal? If not, what can I do about it?

    I am afraid this is normal. It's called the battery drain problem and there are a couple of threads about it.

    Sofar the only effective solution is removing the battery.
