hp dv1000 battery issue

by dislogik Dec 31, 2004 10:31AM PST

Having a problem surfing the internet on a hp dv1000.
If I unplug the ac adapter the pages take forever to load, but it works just fine if it is plugged in. HP seems to think it is a defective battery, but never have seen such a problem.
Any help?

And is there SPYWARE on this machine?

I don't see a hardware issue yet.

No Spyware

There is no spyware on the machine. It now won't let me download anything. If the power cable is plugged in I can, but if it is unplugged it won't let me download.

I have a Toshiba laptop. The ethernet port will not work if the AC is unpluged, it will only work it the AC adpter is pluged in. I guess you HP is the same way. John
