    Hi,

    I have a Acer 5720Z and when my laptop is powered on, it won't charge. When I power it off or put it in standby the laptop charges normally. Also, when I take the battery out and use the charger, it starts but loses electricity every three seconds or so. I used three different chargers and have the same problem. It's not the battery I think, because it gets charged till 100% and i can use it for 1,5 hours or so. Is it possible to repair it? And if so, how can I?
