Happy, New Years I have a Libretto 110 that I use very lightly, I went to use it the other day, it would boot? uhm I replace the battery (I have 2 ext cap), it didnt boot, either. So I thought both neede charging? Well, either both battiers dye that the same time, or the charging system on the Libretto went bad? The computer does power-up with AC adapter. Any prognosis??? I suspect the charging sub system, because, what are the odds both batteries going out at the same time? So, to fix this problem, would I need to do a Motherboard transplant???

Li-Ion chemistry does deteriorate over the years, and if you let any rechargable battery sit, it'll stop working in a few years. 2) Could be the charging circuit - but you can always test by connecting test leads to the Libretto between the battery and system to see if there's any current flowing through. 3) Could be something else. At this point, I'd try a new battery if the old ones are already 3+ years old. ebay.com has them as do other battery websites. adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Yahoo!
