I have an Acer Aspire 5670 notebook, and I have pulled out my hair trying to get a new battery to charge. Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the latest bios update, but can't find bios update 3309 which is supposed to solve this issue. Running Win XP.

 

Thank you.

    When I press on the battery indicator on the task bar, it comes up saying unknown, charging 0%

    ok, try this. First power off the unit> then unplug the unit>take the battery out> Hold the power button down for 30secs> then put the battery back in and plug it up and see if the issue remains.

    Already tried that. Didn't work. Tried for 2 minutes too. No luck.
