New Laptop Battery. Charging Help!?

I ordered a laptop and it is coming today. I heard that once you get your laptop and battery it is nescessary to full charge the battery first and then fully discharge it and then charge is again before actually using it to help the battery. Is this true? also when i charge the battery should the laptop be on or off? and when discharging should i use the laptop? or just let is discharge? thx in advance

Answer:

Some Laptops come with the software that control the over charges of battery, if your laptop has any Energy management software try to download wiz its model, if you cant find the software you have to charge ur laptop with power off, other wise the battery life time degrade faster.
Not very sure if this is true but I didn't do this and my battery is perfectly fine. When I started using my laptop I just plugged it into the wall socket to charge and turned it on and played on it while charging as I do not like it when it runs low battery later on, but my laptop is perfectly fine. So you should search for google how to setup your laptop or similar and go on a page that tells about the battery too. Its your choice
