Solved! Gateway labtop battery charging problems

Solution
Well, for one, if you are good with a multi meter you can check to see if the contacts are working and charging. Check the battery, the contacts of the unit and the contacts of the battery---make sure the pins have ample spring or resistance enough to make good contact (they get worn).

You can see if the unit runs w/out the battery just on AC.
