Default Extended Battery LED problem - 04-29-2010, 02:24 AM

Hi, i purchased an 8 cell extended battery and the LED's are constantly flashing. If i turn the computer off and plug in the charger only the white light comes on and stays on, can turn the computer on and everything is normal, removing the lead causes the lights to flash one at a time. Starting the computer without the power lead causes the same probelm. Im running A04, is there anything i can do to disable the LED's? I dont want to loose the F11 and F12 function by going to A00.

Thanks

Electrical tape was my solution.
