I have Acer Aspire 7515z. I using windows 7 RTM. Now it is showing a cross icon on battery saying that "Consider replacing your battery" as my battery is giving the same performance. I disabled the Microsoft ACPI Compliant Control Battery Method, it vanished the icon but didn't extended my battery's life. I re-installed windows but same issue is occuring. Help me to sort out this issue. thanks

Can't even find a 7515z in the Acer list!!
It could be that the battery in the laptop is not in good condition and Windows is telling you this, so do NOT turn off the warnings..
Take a look here..

Dear Hira,
All guides are already written on this thread. What assistance you need further...
I finally resolved this issue.
Dear users, who ever is facing the "Consider Replacing Battery" Issue in windows 7, read it out .1st of all, run the command prompt with administrator privileges and in command prompt, change the destination path to C:\ and then type POWERCFG -ENERGY. It will scan ur battery status and after 1 minute, it will generate a report which will be saved in the same destination in which the command had been performedi.e C:. Open the energy report and check the battery's designed capacity and the last full charge. There will be a difference in both values as well as in the red columns (which are the warnings)it will be saying that battery has been charged below 40%. Note the last full charge reading and then perform the below given steps...this was mine figures: -

Battery ID SANYO GC86508SAT0 Manufacturer SANYO Serial Number Chemistry Lion Long Term 1 Design Capacity 44400 Last Full Charge 30470 (it was at 11780, now see the difference by yourself) charge the battery completely, after that, start using laptop on battery and unplug the charger. Use the laptop until it automatically shut down itself. When it gets shutdown, On it again without plugging the charger and start using the laptop until and unless the battery is totally emptied. Then plug in the charger and start charging battery, again perform the same steps, after that, run the POWERCFG -ENERGY and check the last full charge reading. Perform these steps until ur last full charge crosses the 40% of the design capacity. still facing problem, then contact me on*** Email address is removed for privacy ***, cell # +(removed).

Dear KshamaFegade,
I have tried my level best to write down the solution steps so that anyone can follow it but if u still can't do it on your own, then grab a friend's assistance who is likely to be having sound knowledge of operating system.
Ignoring the problem will result in displaying warning messages of CONSIDER REPLACING BATTERY whereas it is itself a very annoying issue. On the other part, your laptop will act accordingly with that percentage meaning that it will turn off or hibernate or put it on sleep on the percentage of last full charge. You can see that following those steps have addressed many people issue so you might be lucky if this solution solved your issue too....
