Hi Gerihc90,

Please share the exact system model.

What is the message that you get when you hover the mouse on the battery icon on the task-bar (plugged in,charging / plugged in, not charging)?

Also check if the charging port on the laptop is loose.

*Check the AC Adapter in BIOS; check the ‘AC Adapter type’ status if it shows ‘Unknown/  Not Detected / None / 65W / 90W / 130W'.
*If you get the status as 'Unknown / Not Detected / None' then reset BIOS to defaults:

  • Restart the computer, tap 'F2' key on Dell logo 4-5 times
  • This will take you to the main screen of BIOS
  • Press ‘F9’ key once, highlight ‘Yes’, press ‘Enter’
  • Press ‘F10’ key once, highlight ‘Yes’, press ‘Enter’

Also, check the Battery Health Meter:

  • Right click on the battery icon on the taskbar
  • Choose ‘Dell Health Meter’
  • Click on ‘Battery Health’ tab
  • Examine the information shown in the window

Please reply if you have any questions.
