What to do about "Continue replacing your battery" notification?
I have a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 7 and today after I started up my computer, this notification came up. Apparently this is fairly common in Windows 7.
My sister has had a similar problem. She took out her battery and now solely relies on having her laptop (same type as mine - both a little less than two years old) plugged into the charger at all times.
Now I'm wondering if I should take my battery out as well? Would it affect my laptop any further to keep the battery in for the time being and attempt to find a different solution?
I know I could buy another battery, but I want to be sure there are no other options or solutions to try.
Any input is greatly appreciated!

Here is an answer, from Microsofts Answers site:-
Dear users, who ever is facing the "Consider Replacing Battery" Issue in windows 7
1st of all, run the command prompt with administrator privileges and in command prompt, change the destination path to C:\ and then type POWERCFG -ENERGY. It will scan ur battery status and after a minute, it will generate a report which will be saved in the same destination in which the command had been performed i.e C:\.
Open the energy report and check the battery's designed capacity and the last full charge. There will be a difference in both values as well as in the red columns (which are the warnings) it will be saying that battery has been charged below 40%. Note the last full charge reading and then perform the below given steps...this was my figures: -
Battery:Battery Information
Battery ID SANYO GC86508SAT0
Manufacturer SANYO
Serial Number
Chemistry Lion
Long Term 1
Design Capacity 44400
Last Full Charge 30470 (it was at 11780, now see the difference by yourself)
charge the battery completely, after that, start using laptop on battery and unplug the charger. Use the laptop until it automatically shut down itself.
When it shuts down, turn it again without plugging the charger in and start using the laptop until and unless the battery is totally emptied.
Then plug in the charger and start charging battery, again perform the same steps, after that, run the POWERCFG -ENERGY and check the last full charge reading.
Perform these steps until ur last full charge crosses the 40% of the design capacity.
