Battery not charging, MacBook Early 2008

Hello, i am having an issue with my Early MacBook battery. It is not charging but it can turn on normally. It tells me "The Battery is not charging" and the AC power Adapter is Green when connected. It tells me 10:00 till full but nothing changes. I'm not sure if its the power port or whatever.

I'm new to mac and i'm actually loving it more than windows. I got this MacBook from a friend so it's quite used but not as heavily.

I'd really appreciate the help.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)
