[DuoList] Duo 270c Woes

[Pangrazio, Robert Thomas (UMR-Student)]

Well I tried it and the battery still seems to have problems. I am just
a little concerned because I can't seem to find a battery that works. It
is possible I have a lot of dead batteries. But I am a little worried. I
had heard that it is possible, but unlikely that the code for the Power
Manager can go bad, is there any way to reset this?

Thanks
Bob

The battery is wonky.  You need to recondition the battery using the 
utility that is hopefully on your hard drive.
