Try and clean the contects on the battery and the notebook contects aswell. If your notebook is under warranty, then it may be a good idea to get Dell to repair it. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply,
I have tried the contacts and still no good :mad:
Unfortunatly its just out of warranty,also with me installing a new Ac jack plug onto the motherboard wont go down too well with there warranty.
Oh well its still with the AC adapter for now ... just ordered a new adapter tonight so we will see if that cures it..
Cheers

It's probably the battery, especially if you didn't have this problem before you got the new battery.
