I have a Toshiba Portege M200, designed for Microsoft Windows XP. It was purchased about 6 months ago from a Surplus store with no battery. It works perfectly if it is plugged into a charger. I recently purchased a battery for it, but my computer says 'Battery not present' and as soon as I unplug the charger, the computer dies. Here is what the computer says about the laptop:
