I had the same problem, 13 months from purchase. so i just bought a double capacity battery on eBay, works fine now. The original battery doesnt work due to charge cycle life time. approx 400 full charges i believe, then the batt is knackered. best thing to do is buy another battery...

Advent 4211c battery flashing orange
The MSI (manufacturer of this product) website has very poor product support - the only download is a BIOS upgrade for MSI-labeled units only. I could not find a user's manual to download, so I will give you a generic answer based on customary practice:
If the charge light is flashing orange, when previously it was green during charging, then the computer has detected a fault in the battery.

You may have already tried this... Please remove the battery to see if the machine responds to pluged in power by itself. Press the power button for about 30 seconds befor pluging in the power... this is usually the way to reset the laptop. A defective battery can keep the machine from working.
If there is no response, the motherboard may have been damaged or a solder gotten loose, either way, it would need to be taken apart to verify and the solution could be expensive.

I cant use my advent 4211 pc notebooke without the charger
I would suggest that your notebook is probably in need of a new battery perhaps??

The standard battery is 2200 mAh, and I know you can buy higher capacity 5200mAh batteries. Since the notebook is a fairly recent one, the battery SHOULD still be OK. However, if the notebook doesn't boot up unless it is plugged in the mains, then I would think the battery is the place to look at.

Regards

Flashing green and orange battery light on body of laptop
The flashing orange light indicates that the battery isn't working properly. This could be due to either the battery being worn out, or a battery fail safe has kicked in. Either way the battery will need to be replaced in order to fix this. Since the performance isn't quite right, I'm going to say that a fail safe has engaged, you can confirm this by running the computer without the battery and see how the performance is. You will need to replace the battery, and the replacement will make the machine work properly.
