removing stuck battery from D810   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2731 of 2741 |
One of the batteries in my wife's Dell Latitude D810 is stuck in place.
It doesn't budge a bit when I try to pull it out. It's the battery that
fits in the right-hand-side, where you can also put in a CD drive. The
case is bulging down a bit under the battery, and this might be causing
it to grab the battery from the sides. I'm not sure what is causing the
bulging, but it might be that the battery is doing this. It's an old
battery that hasn't worked in a while.

Any suggestions for how to remove it? Would taking the laptop apart
help?

Thanks,

Dan

Thanks for both responses. It turns out my wife's laptop is still covered by onsite complete care. A technician came less than 24 hours after she called and...
