Why does my laptop die when disconnected from it's charger?

Question

Alright, so my Toshiba Satellite A105 was working well this morning. According to it's battery meter, it currently has a 52% charge. But whenever I unplug it, it turns off at the speed of light. Why is this? Is this a matter of the laptop being unusable, or just a case of needing a new battery? (Note: When it is plugged in to it's charger, it will only work for 2-3 minutes at a time)

If you mean it turns off immediately after unplugging it, that means your battery is either shot, not in properly, or the battery port on the laptop has is messed up.

If the battery is showing 52% charge, but cuts out immediately when the charger is disconnected the battery is faulty.
