I have a Toshiba Satellite A300-1MC and it's 2 years old. My battery always used to fully charge, but this week it started only charging up to 75%, then 60%, then 53% and its currently only going up to 42%. I have fully discharged the battery then tried charging it back up - any ideas whats going on?

Battery's shot. A battery is only good for so many charges then it won't be able to hold its charge. There'll come a point where it won't charge at all. This is a natural process, all batteries go this way eventually.
