Default Lappy doesn't run off battery anymore

I have a Compaq Presario F572 Laptop.
Just recently it wont run on battey power anymore. It will only turn on when its plugged in. I have two batteries for it so unless both of them failed at the same time, it must be the laptops fault.

Any ideas or suggestions?
