So my gfs Toshiba Satellite laptop cord got chewed up by our rabbit a while ago. I finally got around to ordering a new one and while I was at it, I also replaced the battery. The old one would only charge part way and the price was cheap enough so figured replacing it wasn't a bad idea.
Anyway, so the new battery and cable came in the mail and everything seems to work ok except the battery won't charge past 60%. After it hits 60%, the battery in the task manager says 'plugged in and not charging'... Same as the old battery. Is there some sort of recalibration I can do to fix this? I also noticed that upon first plugging the battery in and charging it, the battery read 0% for the first 10-15 mins (even though it would still run the PC without AC power)
Thanks in advance
