    When the computer is on battery power the screen will flicker and then eventually go black. This never happens when it is plugged in.

    Did a quick search and saw someone was having a similar issue with an HP dv6000, but no solutions other than to try a new battery. Seeing as how I don't have another battery, any chance this is something else?

    Thanks!
