Typing skills a little rusty?

Let me translate:

"I have an Acer TravelMate 4002. The battery works fine for about 1 hour 30 minutes but battery will only charge with the laptop on. If I shut it off, it won't charge... Any one know what I can do for this?"

The power settings in the Control Panel may be corrupt. Or the internal charging circuits may be damaged

Ok Traud,
you did pretty well considering. This is one of many reasons why we ask members to post their country. Good luck...

Thats wierd - I have just posted to this thread and it ain't there...
again:
Some Acer laptops have the facility of managing more than one battery so you should check that this is set correctly in both the control panel and the BIOS if present.

Some acer laptops have options to manage more than one battery - maybe tmagic650 is on the right track with control panel settings but check also laptop's own power management in the BIOS.
