Well I did it. GOt the latest A04 from Dells site and it worked great. Scary after hearing some of your stories, but worked none the less.

backup battery meter does the A04 ROM upgrade fix the metering problem? Mine ran for about a year with no issues - then started continuously reporting flat backup battery - which every now and then ended up as reported 100%! Have done the ROM upgrade to A02. Looking through the lists it seems the answer is to do a hard reset when this happens. :cry:
