Thanks for your answer. As stated in my question, I have already tried this and, minus uninstalling "ACPI Fixed Features Button". However, I do not have any such or similar drivers under System Devices, so cannot make this extra step.– NinjakannonCommented Feb 4, 2016 at 22:26

All I can suggest is to power down, remove battery and AC, remove the cmos battery for 15 minutes, reinsert the cmos battery and immediately enter the bios and set date and time, see if this makes a difference in charging.– MoabCommented Feb 4, 2016 at 23:17

Somehow I did have a "ACPI Fixed Feature Button" driver; removing this had no impact on charging, though it didn't reinstall (as I expected and as the "Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery" driver does. There are a bunch of other ACPI drivers... Would uninstalling these be a reasonable idea?– NinjakannonCommented Feb 5, 2016 at 12:20

I have noticed that the AC power light has stopped flashing after doing this. That's something, I guess.– NinjakannonCommented Feb 5, 2016 at 13:30

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
