Hi, i think battery in my FE21S is dead. battery is VGP-BPS2C 11.1V/5200mAh.

I;m using thic laptop 10 months and I dont know why it's not working. When i unplug laptop from power he just turned off. Can anyone know how long is warranty for battery in vaio?? And mayby why it's not working??

My battery died last weekend. I have a SZ1-XP and have had it for 1.5y. I am trying to contact Sony online with no avail as my laptop is old (the other option is to call a premium rate phone number which is unacceptable). I have found a useful website link:

Apparently the Vaio continues to charge the battery after it is fully charged which causes it to die. The bios upgrade R0083N0 does not help, so if I buy another battery the same will happen again. I am extremely disappointed that this has happened. The notebook is not fit for purpose!

Yep it's happened to me too......I've had my laptop for just over a year VGN-AR31S and all of sudden a couple of days ago my battery just stopped working.....I'm hoping it's just the battery and not the connection on the laptop itself?

When i put my cursor over the power icon in the task bar, it says no battery is detected.....

Does anyone know where to get a replacement without paying the high prices sony want for them? Any help appreciated.

Thanks
