Vista - After Recent Vista Update my batterie doesn't load

After Recent Vista Update my batterie doesn't load and it indicates 0%. As
anyone had that problem? How can I solve it?

Hello, don't blame the update yet. Depending on what type of battery your computer has, my owner manual says my battery's life span is 300 discharge/charge cycles. After that, time to buy a new one. Open your owner manual, it will tell you how to check the battery health etc.

But my notebook ASUS F9S is practically new: about 7 months and I din’t
charge and discharge that often. So I doubt it is because of that, especially
because it occurred after Vista Update… Thank you.

Hello, Ana. What I am going to suggest from here on is strictly unscientific.I could be way off. Step #1. I am sure you have already done these - check if your battery pack is securely connected, plug it to a different electrical outlet to check for faulty outlet.
Step #2. You said it's the update. Can you pinpoint which update ? If yes, uninstall it by : Control Panel> Classic View> Windows Update> click View Update History> click Installed Updates, from there pick out the alledged culprit, highlight it, click Uninstall.
After that, go backward " <--- " to windows update window, left panel click Change Settings, click the box that says " check for updates but let me choose -----". The update which you blame on will not be installed without your ok. Now see if your batter is recharging. ( Personally, I don't think so. ) Step #3. All else fails, a trip to the local computer repair shop. Keep me posted please.

I will follow all that steps. Thank you very much. As soon as I get the
answer I will post.

I'm really sorry I thought it was because of Vista Update.
After sending a mail to ASUS and updating BIOS, my battery is working. Thank
you and I am really sorry.

Hello Ana. Apology is not neccessary. We don't know, that's why we come here for help. Like Brink said, " There are no dumb questions, just people who don't ask." ( or something like that.) Your problem has resolved, that's what matters.
