The laptop: Acer aspire 1670
The battery: BATELW80l8H

I cant understand why it seems to use and rely upon the battery even when plugged into the mains. There doesnt appear to be anything wrong with power supply - green LED on its transformer is on, and the laptop recognises when connected by lighting up its own LED.

Any ideas guys?
I hear the cry of the silence around me.
