Dell battery problem - Never mind. It's fixed

Post by Richard Sinkler »

I am getting a "System battery voltage is low" error on boot-up. I replaced the battery with a new one but I am still getting this error. Is there something else that could be causing this error?

It is a Dell Dimension 9100

Never mind. It seems the contacts that touch the larger diameter part of the battery just needed to be bent in a little to make a better contact.
