Batteries are just a can of chemicals that start wearing out on first use. <br />
<br />
So now the battery is dead (won't charge), then it is likely needing a battery (95%) but it could be the motherboard charging circuit (5%) .<br />

You cannot update BIOS without both a charged battery and AC plugged in to avoid bricking the laptop (more expensive that replacing the battery)

You can replace the physical cells in some cases by splitting the &quot;battery&quot; casing apart, but it's cheaper to buy a new one on eBay unless you want to start a battery pack refurb business.

I am curious why you did not offer any assist points for essentially the same answer

Battery warning on Dell Studio XPS laptop tag # DBMZKL1<br />
&quot;Warning the battery cannot be identified&quot;<br />
it's the original battery and it no longer charges<br />
The laptop power Adaptor works fine and I also tried another power adaptor<br />
I have not tried another battery because I do not have an extra one<br />
I tried to update the BIOS from Ao1 to A11 be this will not install, it says &quot;BIOS update failed the battery must be charged above 10%<br />
anyone know a work around before purchasing a battery?
