Did this with my current Dell XPS 1730. Now I can't take it off the adapter because it doesn't charge at all.

my laptop's always plugged in, with the batteries in too.
So it's better to take the batteries out?
I charge only when its very low (when I get the warning pop up). And preferably not while using it...
Leaving it plugged in whenever you use it isn't good.

Supposedly these "newer" laptops switchto AC power once the battery is fully charged, but I ain't hearing that$%%+. I have an HP dv6000 and I'm on battery #3, and I haven't even hadthe computer 2 years. Now I just unplug the charger once the batterygets full.
mine does that...the little lightling bolt led light turns off when its fully charged

This dude couldn't even finish his sentence until his computer turned off.
I learned the hard way (pause)..
Now my battery straight up only lasts for a good 20 mins on low power..
Time to hit up eBay for a new batt.
