Dear Sir,

I think that there must be a problem with the charger,

I will advise you trying another charger of the same model and see if it's charging or not

Thanks

Thanks for your advice ,i have replaced the charger and it seems to have done the trick.I have found out that had it not been the charger then it would have been a problem with the mother board.

Thank you so much suff 954, this worked perfectly and saved me a big headache and further searching for clues. Much appreciated! Two laptops from the same company, two seemingly identical power cords, only once coputer having battery issues. Just switched the power cords and now both are fine. Thanks again.
