    ive had my m1530 for about 18months and the battery has stopped holding its charge with it only getting about 20mins on powersaver.
    Could this be an issue to take up with dell or is this just a problem with my laptop?

    Dell. I just had this problem on my M1530 (after 3 years).

    Call them up, complain and you'll have a tech replacing your mobo and adapter in a couple days. Then when it still doesn't charge, they'll ship you a replacement :D
