Hi. This is my first post here, and I did do a search to see if there were similar topics. I am really sorry if this has been asked before (or numerous times before.) I know how annoying that can be. I didn't find a thread with the exact issue I am having.
I had my laptop plugged into a power strip that also had a TV plugged into it, and when I turned on the TV, everything just went dead for a second. The laptop was still on, didn't skip a beat, but it did inform me it wasn't plugged in anymore and was running on battery.
So, now when it is plugged in, the blue light around adapter plug glows for about 5 seconds before tinkering out and not glowing. Then in about 30 seconds, it does the same thing. 5 seconds and tinkers out. And keeps happening. The laptop is fine, but it is now slowly losing battery power.
I've tried various outlets all over the house.
I also took the battery out, and it still does the same thing.
I was just wondering if this would be an adapter issue or a battery issue?
Hope nothing happened to the inside.
