I work in a high school and we have many Dell C600's that we use on mobile laptop carts for the students. The problem is many of the batteries are not working correctly. They are either not charging or say they are charged, but do not supply power. When I worked for gateway they had a utility in the BIOS on many of their laptops to recondition the battery. It would basically discharge the battery and then test while charging to see if the batter was OK. I was wondering if anyone knew of a utility to test and recondition batterys on Dell notebooks or any other notebook for that matter. I searched Dell's Website and I googled, but no luck. Any help or insight is appreciated.
Thanks ahead of time.
