    Default Laptop Battery Query

    I purchased an IBM R-52 laptop a year ago. Nowadays,whenever i run it on the battery,the battery level decreases upto 60-70% and then suddenly dips to 4%.Do I need to purchase a new battery? What would be the approx. price of a new battery?

    Just try calibrating the battery. This option would mostly be available in the BIOS or thru an IBM provided software. It should help mend "battery manners"!

    In a nutshell, it resets the hold time.
