Prevent battery failure message on startup

Hi,

the battery of my Alienware 15 R2 has failed after 1 year and 7 days (coincidence?). I am not going to replace it anytime soon and I just want to get rid of the annoying BIOS message: "Your battery has experienced permanent failure and needs to be replaced. Press F1 to continue or F2 to enter setup". I just don't want to press F1 every time I boot my PC. Is it possible to disable the warning? Consider that I already tried to disable 'Adaptor warnings' from BIOS, but the message persists.

Thanks in advance for the help.

The  only way is to replace the battery.

This is a software issue, not a hardware one. There should be a way to inhibit the bios messages.
