I reinstalled XP on IBM T41, now battery won't charge. Could this be Driver Problem

If the battery is not charging,it can be that the battery itself works properly,but the system doesn't indicate that

the battery is charging. in order to fix this problem,you will need to reinstall the battery management software by

using Device Manager
1.Open Device Manager
Right click on My Computer->select Properties->click Hardware tab->click Device Manager
or if you're using Vista or windows 7,type "device" on the Start menu and select Device Manager
2.Expand the Batteries category
3.Under the Batteries category, right-click the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Method Battery listing, and select

Uninstall .
WARNING: Do not remove the Microsoft AC Adapter driver or any other ACPI compliant driver.
4. On the Device Manager taskbar, click Scan for hardware changes.
Please let me know if it's works or not and thanks for using fixya

Severe Windows corruption - the driver you removed has prevented the reboot and corrupted all the other video files. Try booting in Safe Mode - in there the default driver should be selected. In there try to reinstall the driver again. If that fails the only thing left is to do a repair install (if you have a retail install disk) or a full reinstall - if you have a recovery disk.

Hi. Try plugging in an external speaker just to test the issue. It could be just the speaker of the laptop is having the problem. If you were able to hear the sound from the external speaker then the problem is the built in speaker of the computer. If there is no sound coming out to external speakers. Try to reinstall the driver of your soundcard.

Hi,
Boot your laptop into windows. Go here to IBM Lenovo support and download the Cisco Wireless LAN Mini PCI adapter driver >>>>>>>

Once downloaded just execute the file as it is an .exe file, you will the wireless icon appear in the system tray (bottom right of the screen).


Regards.

Make sure the downloaded driver is for XP and not Vista and they are specific to your model laptop.
After downloading the driver file, when you run the file it unzips the file and copies it to your hard disk (take a note of the file folder it creates on your hard disk). Then you need to go to that folder and run the setup file and it will install the audio driver.
This also applies to all the drivers you download and wish to install.

Go to this site. Look for the chipset or usb driver.

It can over charge it.
it happens alot with laptops.

This failure is caused by the usb drivers conflicts, power supply or failure on the motherboard - You can go to the IBM website and check it out more about this issue.
