HP ZE4365US problem

Replaced the battery in laptop and loaded in 3.1 which works great. After about an hour or so the battery light turns from green to amber and starts flashing. At that point the computer shuts down. The laptop is plugged in the entire time. I then have to restart the computer and if it doesn't boot up I have to remove and reinsert the battery for it start correctly. The battery turns green after a few minutes and all is well until about an hour or so of inactivity. Any ideas?
Thanks

AC adapter working. I can run laptop without battery. Battery monitor and light indicator show charging up to 100%. Brand new battery installed and talking with distributor about it. Strange thing.

I did notice something though. The fan never came on in the computer and I believe it was overheating which caused it to shut down unexpectantly. I was wondering if anyone was having problems with 3.1 in laptops?
