It could be the battery, since you're already getting the alert.

Good morning all,

I have an issue with my HP G62...... It won't power on unless I plug in a charger. And when the laptop is on, with the charger plugged in, the real percentage of the battery is displayed.

I need help with this, please..

Thanks for the response....

Meanwhile, isn't there any form of troubleshooting I can do to be sure the battery is really dead.

I'm asking because the battery bar shows "charging" and the percentage increases when the charger is used to power on the laptop. However, the laptop shuts down when the charger is removed.
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by ebab(m): 11:44am On Sep 25, 2022
Clearly it is battery

Two things could be involved here but first of all check with another battery to confirm.

Start with the easiest first,note don't just go ahead and buy a battery, test to see if it will power on with the battery alone without plugging the charger.

clearly a symptom of a spoilt battery. if you are not convinced, you can download those battery meter softwares or related softwares to check the current health capacity details of that battery. you need a new battery replacement

Your laptop shutdown and stop charging.

It COULD be that your battery was the cause of the issue in the first place , you'll have to replace the battery.

my computer, which is actually an Hp EliteBook 840 G3 i5, started charging after it suddenly stopped. Not only did it stop, it shows that it is plugged in but not charging. I thought long and hard about how to fix this problem, and found the answer here You don't have to worry if your computer's battery is out of charge, the answer is emphatically NO. It's mostly caused by outdated laptop drivers that need to be updated. When you see the error message on your computer, you will need to go to the Device Manager on your computer.

While this will work in some cases,like uninstalling the battery driver and restarting your laptop for it to automatically reinstall or better still updating it, charging a laptop battery involves a lot of stages.
This is basically just the software part, which is basically just part of the troubleshooting process like using another battery or laptop charger to confirm.

Hello, Please my Zinox laptop is refusing to boot. Like I can't get to the user interface. Can't access anything. If it's not something I can do, help me out with how much it might cost to fix the laptop.
Note, I have very important pdf files inside.
Thank you.
