    The "report" I received back from the service repair technician was partially helpful and partially not. I was able to get a little more information from the go-between on the phone, but not a...

    Thanks. That's a good point - I don't know whether it is a genuine OEM battery or not. I could ask, I suppose.

    What about connections? As I said, computer hardware isn't my background, but on...

    The repair shop says the battery is toast and must be replaced. This makes sense given that it wouldn't charge at all, but I am rather surprised because the battery health was doing very well right...

    Thanks. I will give that a try. It isn't immediately obvious how to remove the battery so I assume I must need to open up the case. I will do some research on that and will probably need a new...
