Maybe the mac is thinking the battery is dead or not there. Or it could be a straight up hardware issue. Take it to the mac store, they are pretty good about diagnostics there.

X means no battery / (very) dead battery, so either the battery circuits in the computer have gone bad, or you got a dud battery. Obvious test is to put your old battery back in and see if the computer recognizes it.

Apple Menu - > About This Mac -> more info -> power can also give you some details about what if anything the computer knows about the battery.
