laptop power problem
I recently put on my laptop and when it booted up ok the screen was dull as
if the battery was low but the icon said it was charging. It remained at 2% and never rose up to full charge. When I take it off mains power the screen brightens up like it was fully charged but i get a message saing i should switch to mains outlet as the power was low. Any body any ideas what is going wrong. I tried another power adaptor but still the same result. |

We weren't able to wave or hands and make the power problem go away? I can sort of understand, since this sort of thing happened some years ago to one of our laptops. Finally, the internal power supply up and died, out of warranty, of course. The repair bill was $100 less than the then current used value. |
