The battery is swollen

Hello My laptop is not stable on the desk and So I opened it. All the batteries are swollen. As I do not want to change the batteries I thought if I could disconnect them and use the laptop from the wall power.

The problem is that the computer does not boot with the battery disconnected and display the battery charge icon. Can I make it work and get rid of the batteries?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

You have to get those battery packs out as they will continue to expand and could start leaking.

Here's how to do it, or take it into a shop to have it done. Expect to pay about $350.00 for parts and labor.
