So, a few days ago, my MacBook (~2 yr old PlastiBook 10.4) randomly stopped recognizing my battery. When I opened it up from (what I thought was) sleep mode, it wouldn't start. I had to plug it in to get it to fire up, the charger was displaying a green light, and the battery indicator read "no batteries found". It will run (albeit a bit tempermentally) when plugged in, but its role is now that of a semi-portable desktop.
My battery was fine, however... It's the factory battery (about 2 years old now), but I've always taken care of it. Its charging cycles were normal, and still held the normal 3-4 hours of life. It will no longer give me any lights or response to a capacity check by pressing the little button, though.
I've tried removing the battery for a couple of days, rebooting the computer with and without the battery... just about everything I can think of short of a complete replacement. Has anyone ever had this problem? Any input would be appreciated, thanks!
