    Hi to all Vaio Experts

    Got a brand new genuine expensive VGP-BPS2C laptop battery for my 2nd hand VGN-SZ491N laptop. After fully charge for a day, if I turn on my laptop using Windows 7 Ultimate edition under stamina mode, all I see is at 93% 2 hours 35 minutes, would this consider to be normal for a 3 years old laptop ?

    Do you think I should get a battery board from eBay to fix this problem ??

    Please kindly advise.


    Solution :

    Restore my laptop to Windows Vista Business and now my battery can get up to 3hrs 45 mins after a full charge.
