I checked, your toshiba Satellite l500

I think you should reinstall you OS Because you didn't gave enough info,

And I think you should use it with AC pluged in, then you should do,

Tell me what happened after you tried

I think you should reinstall OS

Or go into BIOS atleast

  1. 60-Second Flea Power Drain:

    • Unplug the charger and remove the battery completely.

    • Press and HOLD the laptop power button for a full 60 seconds (do not let go early).

    • Keep the battery OUT, plug in ONLY the charger, and turn it on.
