Gooday all,

I gave somone my lenovo g400 laptop and after sometime I collected it back now I noticed this problem
It won't charge even when it's connected to power the ba3 icon shows charger plugged iin, not charging . The only way it charges is when I conduct a battery guage reset

My questions are
1.whats wrong with my ba3?
2.lenovo users who have experienced such problems before what did you do about it?
3.how long does this battery guage reset last?
he rating of the charger is not the recommended one for the laptop..ie if the laptop requires 19v 4.5a and the charger is 18.5 3.5a..then u wld get that error message...check under the laptop to know the exact rating needed then compare to wat the charger is

Hi and happy sunday


Please I need your help concerning my Toshiba satellite A132. Last two weeks, I shut down the laptop normally/maybe it went off when the battery was low, can't remember but the next time I tried rebooting it, the only thing I could see was black screen, nothing more.


The booting light comes up normally, it sounds normal but the HDD light wasn't on.


Have tried everytin possible ever since then but not working. Removed the battery and power source, pressed the power button, nothing happened, tried turning it on without the battery but with the power source(nothing), tried fn+f5, f8, etc but not working


Please your help will be appreciated, thanks.

As someone earlier advised. Try removing and reseating the ram. If this doesn't work, take it to a nearby technician

Damaged board or provably processor although rear for a processor to get damaged that easily. you should try loose the covers. Remove the Rams, clean them and insert them back

PLEASE HELP!! My power pack charges my system only when it's not powered on or on 'sleep' mode. Immediately I power it on, it stops charging, indicates it's plugged in bt not charging, it also brings the light its supposed to bring when it's fully charged during this period. And also, this happens for a period of time, works normally and later goes gaga again. PLEASE HELP!

Change the adapter before it causes more damage to the board.

You may have to likely format that hard disk before proceeding with installation. Also check to be sure your installation cd is okay and without scratches.

To format from the windows 7 installation menu. sElect the disk and click format. You would lose all the files so back up before you do this.

Yes, but not without issues. For instance, the internal keyboard/trackpad might not function. Not worth it, in my opinion.

It is probably a problem with the memory. Try removing it and putting it back. Secondly you can try connecting it to an external monitor. If it works on an external monitor, then the problem is with the Inverter or LCD flex cable.
