Hi, i have an Acer Aspire 5720. Owned for about 11 months, it has been great up to now but occasionally, when charging the ring around the power light, the charging light and the other power light all turn orange/red flashing. The laptop stops charging but remains working in every other way. If i unplug the charger and plug it back in, it is fine again but it has happend a few times over the last couple of days. Is there any known reason for this or any remedy for it?
Many thanks, James

Sounds like your battery might be dieing, Some times that is a warning sign that the battery is not accepting a charge. Try running the laptop on battery till it turns off and wont turn back on. Then recharge the battery fully. See if this helps. I have had this happen to me on a older laptop and this seamed to fix the problem.
