    Not sure if this is the same problem as you. The OS says my battery is at 0% too. But it doesn't charge. There is no power in the battery for some reason. It only happened recently after I did a slew of updates from windows update. The battery LED at the bottom right is not lit up.

    Currently using Vista x64. LG R500.

    Will recalibrating the battery fix this problem? :confused:
