Question about Dell Computers & Internet
Battery could be dead and won't hold another charge. Batteries only last for so long until you have to replace them. If you laptop is ok with the AC Adapter & Power Cord meaning it boots and allows you to work in windows, then the battery is definitely dead.

Nominally you might get a more accurate answer by going to support.dell.com and entering the 'service tag' number (on the bottom of your machine next to the 'express service code'.
This machine also includes a field in the BIOS setup program; hit the F2 key when you see the Dell logo to start the BIOS setup program.

Yes, they do have somethnig built in to detect if you are using a non-Dell battery, ergo you would not receive messages like "Battery cannot be identified" at boot up, and a warning that the system won't charge the battery. It is simply a ploy to ensure users buy Dell batteries at their inflated price. It's also known as anti-competitive behaviour in the business world.
Just so you know, they incorporate the same system with the power adaptor. If you use a non-Dell one, it will state that it cannot determine the power adaptor type and then let you know that the laptop will run slowly and will not carge your battery. Another way to make sure you behave and buy only Dell spares. Incidentally, with the adaptor it knows if it's a Dell one because Dell use the centre pin of the adaptor jack connector to send a 2.5V ID signal to the laptop. The positive and negative of the 19V supply is on the inside and outside of the metal barrel of the jack plug. Internal pin is solely for ID signal.
I'm afraid the only recourse is to purchase a Dell adaptor if you wish for the battery to charge. I'd recommend a second-hand one from eBay. Try to buy the highest wattage one you can.
