battery faulty

I installed the battery as directed and it seemed to not fit exactly smoothly albeit easy to do. I powered up and it showed as charging but at some point it would cycle to charge/then battery and back and forth. I tried everything to stop the back and forth as every time it cycled (1-3 minutes) the screen would dim and then bright and never slept. I thought the computer was bad and actually started looking for another laptop but decided to reinstall the battery...several times to no help. I then did a last ditch effort to save my money on a new laptop and took the battery out completely and guess what???? It worked perfectly. I installed the battery again and the errors came back. Bottom line, this battery sucked and didn't work from day 1 and it took me this long to figure it out...I am not employed by the geek squad :-) Don't have anything else to say but just save your money as this product was a huge let down....I just wish I could return it now.
