    So, my G73 no longer seems to have a good connection with my power adapter. Even when fully plugged it, it rarely stays charging for long, usually alternating between charging and not, or just not charging at all. However, when asleep it usually will stay charging once it starts.

    I've tried a new power adapter and that did nothing, any tips, or should I just cash in on the warranty?

    Does the laptop stay on without the battery in it. Basically is the problem with the battery of the power jack. If it's the jack, use your warranty.
