Guys! My wife was using my iPaq and it crashed (I was away on business so it was left in a crashed state). When I returned home she told me that it had crashed and I tried to turn it on. It wouldn't so I thought ok I'll charge it. So I plugged the charger in and nothing happened. No flashing lights nothing. So I removed the battery and put in my extended life battery. Phew It charges and works ok!

So I put the old battery in the 4150 and try to charge. Still no joy. Also every time I plug in the dead battery the iPaq looses it's memory contents.

I have now put the "suspect battery" in the spare battery charger slot on my charger. There is now an amber light on (At the word Aux from "Aux battery"). It is constantly on. What does this constant amber light mean? Is it charging?

Does anyone know if there's a way to get my slim battery working again or is it dead? There was no shortening of battery life or signs of decreasing performance before this happened.

Any ideas? Apart from this I think the 4150 is a fantastic PDA (I had been a PalmOS user since they were called PalmPilots).
