Why Won T My Laptop Battery Charge When Plugged In. To solve this issue follow the steps given below. Battery charging does not start until the Power Meter shows that less than 95 of the total power remains.

Unplug the AC adapter from the laptop. I didnt notice at first if it was charging or not. The battery is built in so I cannot do anything about it.
I was using the PC on battery power.
If adapter isnt detected in BIOS the system will continue to received power but will not charge the battery. Sure enough once taken out and reinserted it no longer charges again. To solve this issue follow the steps given below. Power down the computer and unplug the charger.
