Plugged in, Not charging?

right, i accidently left my laptops battery to discharge to 0.0000%, and now when i plug it in it says plugged in, not charging. HP battery check says no battery detected. The power LED is flashing - if i take the cord out, the pc shuts down. tried taking out the battery and putting it back in. havnt tried charging whilst the pc is off. help! Oh, my battery is slowly getting worse, ie only lasts 40% of what it used to, but it shouldnt die so fast, right???

    If your battery is more than a couple of years ol it might be shot. That's how they act when they go bad.
