i currently have a dell inspiron 1545 laptop, i have been getting a message recently saying:Your battery can be charged normally, however it is coming to the end of its usable life.is it safe to buy a battery of a website, i.e: amazon, OKorder? do i install it - and how - (if you know) or should i take it to a computer shop?thank you. xx
Battery you just snap in and forget about it. It's just two catches from the bottom. As for the error message, battery tells the computer how old it is, and it appears yours has a recommended life. As the other guy said, update the BIOS and see if it goes away.
The laptop battery should be easily removable, and will have small plastic slide-locks keeping it in place, and it'll just pop out, allowing you to install a new one. Less likely, it may be screwed in, but most laptops don't do that. If it is, you'll need a Philips (+) screwdriver, either gauge 00 if it's tiny, or 2 if not. I would recommend buying a new battery from Amazon over a used battery from OKorder any day. Also, try the Dell official website store. Hope I've been of some help!
