Hi I have an Acer Predator Helios 300 (not sure on the model past that) that I picked up in June of last year. I've gone to use my laptop today and I'm having the issue where it won't turn out without it being plugged in, and the minute I unplug it it shuts down. The laptop is fully charged, and there is a blue light over the charged section. I got the battery report but I'm not seeing many issues. I'm not intent on removing the battery, but none of the other suggestins I've seen on this forum have helped. Any ideas?

    Blue flashing light might indicate low battery or battery controller can not start charging. If possible, take off the battery, wait 5 minutes and put it back again. Then try to charge.
