Plugged in, not charging Windows 7 solution : Jeffrey Palermo (.com) I recently had the popular problem of Windows 7 battery manager malfunctioning and not charging my battery when plugged in. The battery was fine, the power supply was fine, and the motherboard was fine (I have enough laptops with the same specs in the Headspring office, and I was able to swap out parts to isolate the problem). I also searched for this problem online, and many folks are having this problem with all makes of laptop computers.
I found the steps that solved my problem here on the TechNet forums.

Shutdown Disconnect AC Insert battery Connect AC Startup Please comment if this fixes your problem so that others can solve their problem sooner.
