Battery Won't Charge.

Well, my battery recently died and when i tried to charge it i left it for a whole day and night and it didn't charge one bit. I set the setting to AC Adaptor under the USB Connection settings and  the recorder's battery is also set to Ni-MH. The USB class of the recorder is set to Composite. Is there something that I am doing wrong?
