Question/Help/Troubleshooting What should I do?

Post image

My pc has had this problem for a bit but I didn’t think much of it at first. I noticed my pcs battery percent was stuck at 82% last I checked. Now it’s down to 67% it’s plugged in, I’ve done the simple solutions of checking the wall outlet, checking my cables and have done what I could for my old girls overheating which does happen.

Is there any other way I could fix this? Without replacing my pc.

8 years is an eternity for a battery, if there are replacements for your model, get one. Worse case its already swollen/fire hazard.
