Battery LED Flashing

I have just started having problems with my battery led. I has started flashing 4 orange flashes then one green, when running on battery and on ac, battery life doesn't seem effected. Does anyone know what this means.
 
 
Also i have just flashed to A32 to try and sort this problem and have noticed that the fan now turns off, and starts again when needed. never noticed this before is this something that is supposed to happen?
 
 
Any help gratefully received

    Of those flashing lights usually indicates that there is a problem with your battery. Try removing the battery and pressing the button on its side and report back what you see.

    I have taken a look at the battery, but there is no button on the side. Is there anywhere else it could be.

     

    The machine is a Inspiron 1100.

    Now that is strange as most modern laptop batteries have the button so that the user can check the charge level of the battery.
