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 Joe,

    when the report is created, then you have to go through explorer into the same directory address as stated in command prompt i.e. c:/windows/system32/energy-report.html.

    It if doesn't help then change the directory before typing in power cfg command by typing d: OR e: (Whichever drive u want to). then it will generate report in the same drive for more details.

    I have officially solved this problem,

    1. Flip your laptop sideways in a smooth fashion (fast but not too fast) while the charger is plugged in

    (lift your laptop slightly in the air and hold the left side and push it upwards to the right direction and smoothly push it back and down)

    The errors and inconvenient messages will instantly dissapear!

    Try it yourself, maybe try more than once if it doesn't work, I'm running a HP Pavillion and it fixed it. 

    Enjoy :)

    Dear BoB,

    Thanks for your attention towards this issue but the problem is still there as i followed your procedure and it didn't worked at all. It had tried again. If u upload a video in youtube with the title name " Resolving the Consider replacing your battery issue" for the actions performed in order to resolve this issue might help us. Waiting fora sooner and positive response from your kind side.

    P.S.P my laptop model is Acer Aspire 5715z.... not 7515z ;)

    Thanks!
