    Hey.

    My Lenovo is 1.5 Years old.

    My Battery seems to suddenly lost her juice. After 5 to 10 minuts of use, it suddenly goes to sleep mode, and with out seeing the battery icon getting drain even. The "Low Battery" massage pops, and before you get the chance to move it already goes to sleep mode.

    My Warrenty is over.

    What should I do?
    Any way to save me from this?

    In case noting i sleft but bying a new battery, I have seen a 9 call battery in Lenovo's site, for the price pf 150. Isn't there a chaper option? Isn't there a 6 cell?

    Thanks!!!
