Amilo D1840 Battery charge does not hold

Postby sukey2k » Tue Jun 10, 2008 10:17 pm

Hi, i recently discovered that there is an issue with the bios regarding the battery life on my machine.

I orginally thought that i needed a new battery but i think this may be the fault.

what FSC support site has said below:

A BIOS CD can be obtained from Fujitsu-Siemens Helpdesk V1.05c or download and create BIOS.iso in Zipped file

How2:
- Remove the battery
- Flash to BIOS 1.05c with the CD.
- Shut down.
- Insert the batttery - After a short time the charging led will begin to flash green
- When the OS is restarted you'lll find the charge indication of the battery will have changed from 100% to empty, 1%, 2%,.......... loading

I have downloaded the bios.iso, which is in a zipped format and have unzipped it.

Can someone tell me step by step what to do next in terms on how to flash the bios.

Thanks in advance.
