I have used a web site for purchasing several replacement laptop batteries, it's called richbattery.com. Both the branded and richbattery.com batteries come with same warranty, both are new, both are the same rating, money back guarantee and I would bet both come from the same factory in China!!! . Try this http://www.richbattery.com/New-Battery-for-Dell-Inspiron-1525-7200mah-9-Cell-Laptop_p_58649.html i hope it helps

try removing the battery and turn on your laptop, then while laptop is on, slide in the battery.

Yes I think you battery is faulty, you need a new battery.

i had one that did this once and i left it whilst i had dinner and coffee it had loaded on my return say about 45 mins how long have you left it

Make sure you do not have a bootable CD or DVD in the drive. If that does not resolve, then try holding the "home" (Media Direct) button while pressing the Power button on.

1. Ensure the touchpad is enabled in the BIOS
2. Check to see if touchpad works in SAFE MODE (F8 at boot)
3. reinstall the touchpad utility
4. if all of the above have no effect, replace the palmrest assembly

1.You need the disk
2 insert it into the cd/dvdrom
3. reboot
Follow the prompts..

if its not booting from the CD/DVD you need to set it in the bios the boot order to the CD/DVD

Thanks
