I have this problem on a Samsung Q45. I've replaced the battery once (about 6 months ago) and I now (again) get the 'battery may be damaged' message. Running time has been extremely poor even from the initial replacement of the battery. 1:50 if I'm lucky, sometimes only 40 minutes. The workaround has not worked for me. When i first bought this laptop i was using Hardy, and the battery life was in excess of 4 hours. This is a serious issue for me, as I spend a lot of time on the road.
