Laptop charging but charge % staying the same?
Hello,
I got a new laptop about 3 weeks ago or so and just today I noticed that it was charging but stuck at 95%
I took the charger out let it drain down to 58% then put it back in again only to see that it's doing the exact same thing but now stuck on 58%
I then turned everything off, unplugged everything, took the battery out and help the power button for 30 seconds (I read somewhere this can work)...
...it did work and it charged all the way to 100%, but then after I took the charger out again and let it drain it's stuck again....same situation
I'm scared to drain the battery now
Even though the % isn't rising i'm still getting the full power from the battery as I've tested in very battery dependant programs and games, so It's not game breaking but just worrying as it could worsen.
Any help is appreciated thanks
p.s. I know It's win 8 I'm running on, but this forum seems to be better as more people use it, and I'm fairly sure it can't be windows 8 specific problem I've got?
