    It is serious because I get that message and the battery is not charging.

    I also have the same exact problem and I am trying to find if anyone will tell how to fix the problem. I searched how to fix the problem but nothing seems to work.

    I have the same problem in my ASUS GL553VD laptop. 255% available is shown when you scroll over the battery icon. Sometimes the battery is detected sometimes its not. Also, the battery indicator constantly keeps on blinking like the laptop is about to run out of battery. I have already purchased two replacement batteries which did not solve this problem. Even tried replacing the charger but the issue remains.  

    One thing that I have noticed is that when you unplug the AC adaptor, the laptop turns off immediately. But when you disable or uninstall Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery from device manager the laptop does not turn off. In fact it lasts until the battery is drained out completely. I have no idea whether it is a hardware issue or software issue.

    Thanks for your efforts, Miguel Simoes_PT. Actually, I had tried different Power Plans and settings earlier to force my tasks being able to utilize the full CPU - all without success. However, triggered by your post, I switched back from my "High Performance" Plan to "Balanced" and moving the slider at the battery icon to "Best Performance". Believe it or not, this actually solved my problem! Now, even without my battery inserted, I can again use 100% of my CPU... What a confusion... Thanks for your reply :) 

    For all others reading this: Not sure now if my performance issue is at all related to the original problem of the 255% - I initially thought it is because my battery capacity would be 'outside' anything that my performance plans can capture. But now I still have the 255% shown, but performance is ok.

    Sorry for the confusion.

    Ok scratch my last post, it seems that even with just the balanced profile, changing to "high performance" in the battery icon on the lower right corner does work.

    If i chose powersaving mode, my cpu doesn't go above ~700Mhz

    Choosing balanced, the cpu only goes to its maximum when there is system load

    Choosing high performance will put the cpu at its maximum frequency even when idle.
