Hi,

I own a MSI GS60 laptop and I'm running into the issue where the battery won't charge, and the laptop doesn't start up when on battery alone. I would say the battery is dead, except the laptop actually runs on the charge (from before) when I pull the AC power so I'm not really sure if it's a motherboard issue or what.

Thanks!
