QUOTE(Sandwich2U @ Jan 21 2007, 08:00 PM) Your notebook is under heavier usage than mine How come it can last for 2 hours ? Maybe there is something wrong with my battery, is there any s/w to benchmark notebook battery ?  maybe u can go back the shop and ask for battery replacement . I believe that ur battery r having some problems now . It shouldnt be so short the usage.  ~maybe u hav lots of startup programs . It may consume ur battery too..
