It seems that the speaker's laptop can only be turned on when the battery outlet is attached, but once detached, it cannot be turned on even after being attached for an hour. It is unclear if the battery is charging while the laptop is plugged in or if it is simply running from the mains. It is suggested to check for a battery light that can indicate the status. It is also possible that either the battery or the charger is defective.

The strangest thing happened to my laptop. I can turn on my laptop with the battery outlet attached to my laptop. But, even though my battery outlet has been attached to my laptop for an hour or so , and I unattached my laptop, I am no longer able to turn on my laptop. A battery is attached to my laptop.

Could battery laptops stop functioning?

Is the battery charging when your laptop is plugged in, or is the laptop simply running from the mains? It sounds like the latter. You should have some battery light somewhere that will tell you.

Sounds like the battery or the charger is bad.
