Is something wrong with my motherboard now

I'm having issues with my battery I just replaced the last one use because it only had 40% capacity according to powercfg - energy I got a new battery and used it for about a month. Now the battery will not charge at all I tried deleted the battery manger in system/hardware,taking it out changing the battery with the old one but it refuses to charge. i'm using the latest bios update A14 but windows says system cannot communicate with battery 65535 hr emaining at 100% ??? I dont have a voltmeter so I can't check it for myself. i;'m using a studio xps 1645

    Try another AC adapter. Then you'll know if it is the battery or not.
