Issues following the reset of the laptop's BIOS configuration.
Issues following the reset of the laptop's BIOS configuration.
Because of my earlier issues with the battery not charging properly, I tried several suggestions from online sources. One idea was resetting the bios, which might have resolved the issue. However, soon after that, many problems emerged. The bios would reset its settings automatically each time it booted. Even though I changed it to legacy mode after every boot, it still returned to uefi. The battery showed 255% and no software could detect it as a removable battery. There was also no power being charged into the battery, which made this situation very frustrating. The battery light was blinking before, but not now. The cpu speed remained stuck at 0.50Ghz, which I noticed from the bios information—it was lower than the previous 2.0Ghz. It felt slower already, and it’s easy to tell when a computer is running slowly.
Can you get into BIOS? If so, you might want to share some screenshots of what you see. While here, take note of what your laptop's BIOS version is. The battery might be new(as stated in your previous thread,

) but the laptop isn't. I'm suspecting either a corrupt BIOS(which might be a physical BIOS chip problem or far worse, that the laptop's circuitry is trying to say buhbye. Out of curiosity, what version of Windows 10 are you on? We're on version 20H2 for the OS, awaiting a latter version to come around soon.
Also, that laptop has a pinhole where you press and hold in order to simulate a battery removal seeing how the battery is internal. Is the button there depressed by any chance?
I can access the BIOS as well, and it seems to be from 1909. Should I press the reset pinhole button?
