This may be it for me

Having some bad laptop problems. Seems like the battery charger... where it plugs in has a bad short or something and it is not charging my battery. It stops charging every few seconds. Needing the plug messed with.

unfortunately I have no real way to get it anywhere to get it even looked at. Let alone the funds. But I didn't want to just disappear.

It is actually charging... highest I got it all day... at 56%

I hope you can get something figured out with it. Computer problems stink.

Seems to be charging better... but there is definitely a problem somewhere.

a kind friend on another site is getting me a new charger in the hopes that is where the problem is. should have it in about a week. My posts may be limited until it arrives though.

Best of luck Pete. Computer problems suck.

I hope the charger works for you.

Oh no. I hope it works out. The forum needs Pete.

Even more than usual since next tuesday is the start of our horror marathon... It's the only time of the year where I write a lot of reviews and I sure don't want to run alone

Today I got a new charger for my laptop (thanks to a generous online friend!)... and looks like it did the trick! Everything working as it is supposed to... even when I move the wire/computer around... no outages at all! Looks like the simple charger fixed my entire problem!

Woohoo

Just in time for your Halloween/Horror marathon to start too.

addicted2dvd · September 27, 2013, 11:44:27 PM

yup.... though I am afraid that my marathon will be very limited this year.

How could this be?
I mean with an unwatched-pile being bigger than my entire collection there should be material enough.

Time issues... there is so much I have to work on doing through-out next month.

Glad to see your computer problem is over

Since you have your computer back in order now you can check that... don't worry it's not a musical thing and this is really interesting.

I knew already that you'll be less active this year, but I hope you'll find the time to do a short one.

This may be it for me
