Re: Compaq R3000
Are you using the AC adapter that came with the Laptop? I Know several of the Dell will not charge if you use the wrong AC adapter. They usually present you with a message telling you its the wrong adapter but this can be turned off.

BIOS's sometimes have a routine to recalibrate the battery.

Also laptop batteries will die with time even if unused.
If the 'new' one you got was old it might be shot even if never used.
