I wonder if this will help. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1431
Does your machine have a power management unit? The Intel macs have an SMC, your machine might be a PMU but I don’t have a procedure for that. Maybe this link will help you…it seems very much related. http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-81857.html Best of luck but keep in mind that your machine is quite dated and the battery may just be near its’ end of life, unless it’s a new battery in which case your computer’s power management unit may need to be reset. Also consider, if you believe the battery is in good shape, to calibrate the battery but you might have to search on how to do that for your battery. Nowadays, calibrating involves letting the machine run on battery until it goes flat and the machine shuts down and then allowing the battery to fully charge. Again, I am not sure on how this is done for your battery but I hope this helps you.
