Do not replace battery Just Do this:
Check voltage capacity on your charger It should be written like 20v,Then check if it matches with voltage on the pc battery,they have to match
This is an indication that the battery is dead. A dead battery won't accept any charge from a charger. If the laptop will operate when plugged in with or without the battery, it's a bad battery.

If the Acer is brand new then it is under warranty. Take it back to where you bought the Acer and get it fixed under warranty. if you attempt to fix it yourself you will most likely void your warranty.

Hi Roger,
There are a couple of problems that may be causing your laptop not to charge, the most likely are listed below.
1) Ensure that the battery icon in the bottom right hand corner has a picture of a plug next to it.
If this is not showing there is a problem with the connection between the charger and the laptop. This can be checked by "wiggling" the connector between the laptop and the charger to see if it shows the plug symbol in any position.
The charger can be ruled out as a problem by borrowing a friends charger if they have one to see if that works and to try your charger on their laptop.
2) Ensure that the battery icon in the bottom right hand corner does not have a picture of a red cross.
If this is showing it indicates a problem with the laptops battery and will need to be replaced in the near future. Unplugging and plugging the charger back in can sometimes remedy this but it is only a temporary solution.
3) If none of the above work it is also worth powering off the laptop completely and removing the battery overnight. Then trying to charge the battery the following morning. This can give the laptop time to "reset" itself and cool down.
It is most likely a problem with the battery as they tend to have a shorter lifespan than the chargers (unless the charger is physically damaged by cutting the cable)

Hi
I would be tempted to leave laptop switched off and turn power plug on to charge up the battery before i use it for a couple of hrs at least and hopefully this will put some charge into the battery
they say that if you continously use the laptop with the power cord plugged in then you could
remove the battery completly to extend the battery life and just use the cord
that way the battery will last many years longer

Ifthe laptop battery is more than 3 - 4 years old then the battery could be wornout. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cyclesand will lose their charge capacity over time, i.e. won't charge to 100% andgradually the charge reduces until the battery won't charge up atall. ORThe battery shows a 100% charge but when the adapter is disconnected thebattery drops off to zero capacity in a very short time. Ifthe battery drops to an unacceptable charge level then the battery needs to bereplaced.
