Two issues with battery report
The first issue is the design capacity. Ever since I got the laptop a bit over a year ago, it has read exactly the same as the full charge capacity, even though they both started off at around 42000 mWh. The other thing is the battery life estimate. Every now and then, it comes up with some enormous number, the latest being 142801 hours. Are these possibly linked to HP PC Hardware Diagnostics Windows or other HP apps, or is it purely a Windows problem? Either way, are there any fixes?
