|  Dell Inspiron 1300 Battery Problem I bought a Dell Inspiron 1300 a few months back for basic computing mobility. Runs great and I have had no problems with it but I noticed a couple days ago that when I try to recharge the battery, it will go to 49% now and no further. It used to charge to 100% perfectly all the time. I plan on contacting Dell about this in the next few days but I was just curious if anyone else has had a similar problem and if it simply is the case of a battery going bad before it's time.

| Does it run for the normal time when on batteries? If yes, then it could be a s/w problem.  I have an Inspiron 1300 too and I kept losing the battery/plug icon in the system tray. But that didn't affect the battery capacity. |

| Mines got the cheapo battery (28w?) and lasts 75 to 90 mins only!  That's with the WiFi on. |
