    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-size: 13px;"&gt;Hello EveryOne!&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;DIV class="msgBody wrapWord fullMessage"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;I have an old Vaio VGN-SR130E laptop. Few months back i installed windows 8 on it. Microsoft compatibility check approved it. Everything was working fine until yesterday i installed a new replacement battery (Old one was getting discharged in minutes).&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;It is saying "57% (plugged in not charging)"&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;I don't have Vaio Control Center on this laptop and all other Vaio services due to clean install of windows 8. So i cannot say its the battery care function causing the problems. Already tried switching off the laptop and holding power button after removing battery. Didn't work.&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;Cannot switch on the laptop without AC adapter but after windows is on i can remove the adapter and system is working fine.&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;Any help would be appreciated.&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;Thanx&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Hi Algan123 and welome to the Sony Europe Users Community.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Your Vaio sounds like a Sony USA model and there is no support on the Sony USA website for Windows 8 on your model.&amp;nbsp; This may cause some Vaio functions not to work properly: -&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="2"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&lt;FONT size="2"&gt;&lt;A href="http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/os8upgrade.pl?&amp;amp;mdl=VGNSR130E" target="_blank"&gt;http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/os8upgrade.pl?&amp;amp;mdl=VGNSR130E&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Was the replacement battery a genuine Sony replacement?&amp;nbsp; Some third party batteries do not function properly on Vaios.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;The original Vista OS used&amp;nbsp; 'Sony Notebook Utilities' which included a 'Battery Checker' function.&amp;nbsp; You could try installing the Vista Sony Notebook Utilities or the Windows 7 SFEP driver and see if this will install and work.&amp;nbsp; If you have installed Windows 8 64-bit it may be worth trying to install the 64-bit SFEP Driver from the downloads page for your model here: -&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&lt;FONT size="2"&gt;&lt;A href="http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=VGNSR130E&amp;amp;template_id=1&amp;amp;region_id=1&amp;amp;tab=download#/downloadTab" target="_blank"&gt;http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=VGNSR130E&amp;amp;template_id=1&amp;amp;region_id=1&amp;amp;tab=download#/downloadTab&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;Sorry I can't suggest anything else.&amp;nbsp; Windows 8 is sometimes a little irrational.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;I would probably think about returning to Win 7 of you can't solve the problem.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.no/html/@13A2E6A3774A8B47B4EC6F04089539E1/images/smilies/063.png" alt=":thinking:" title=":thinking:" /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
