I can confirm, but the last version of the windows driver is not
available on IBM site. The version, that can do this deep discharge, is
verion 0.30 and I can find only version 0.26.

I try the program (integrated in power manager driver) and it can do
some deep charge and discharge, but on the old battery, that I would
"regenerate" I didn't see any progress, it still only 5 minutes of
battery :-(

I think, that the power supply hardware is manageable, but i never see
it on IBM site.
