Upgrade to WM5 and now I don't get a battery notification.

Ok, my upgrade on my v50 to WM5 went pretty smooth and I like it but now it just seems to go dead. I get no low battery indicator or anything. The thing just goes dead and all my info is usually lost.
Any ideas?

That is weird.How is your data lost? That is supposed to be the best part of WM5 is that it is using resistant memory. I haven't actually seen my battery die but no matter what you shouldn't lose your data.

I am not sure but I just talked to Dell and they are sending me a new one. :) I HOPE the new one has WM5 installed already though.

from what I have seen so far they are coming with whatever they had to start with ie 2003SE. you will have to do another upgrade.

That sucks! I think I might just leave 2003 on it then. LOL
