when i was charging my lappy the battery light was as usually orange but when it finished charging the light didnt turn blue but instead there was no light. i just thought the light might be broken or something but i noticed that the battery was only charged at 98%, next time i charged it was only 92% and now its only 89%.. anyone know the reason and what i can do? any help would be much appreciated!
