IBM T40 battery light stays when laptop off!

[valucomputers]

Does anyone know why the battery light stays on after I have switched the laptop off?

I have tried different batterys and it's still the same!

Isn't it supposed to? My compaq's battery light stays on whenever the machine's plugged in, whether it was on or not. I don't think you're supposed to get troubled over that.

Sorry i meant once its switched off and with the power supply taken out, so just running on battery. it stays orange the whole time unless you take the battery out.

None of the other T40s we have do this

Have you update the drivers on the laptop?

Yes all drivers are updated, and still the same

Make sure the light isn't cracked and the drivers are fully updated. If not buy a new one.
