    Hello

    I do appreciate if you help me on the problem I have encountered with.

    Recently I observer strange behaviour of my laptop. The problem is when It is working with battery and it is charging if I hibernate my laptop and put out the battery the laptop does not work anymore although it is connected to AC. But if again I put the battery in it works. Could you please let me know what I should do?

    It should be noted that the charger works fine and it charges the battery

    Really I do apprecita you if you help me on this issue

    most (all?) laptops are NOT designed to be run without having a battery installed.

    I used to take out my battery and run on AC to save on heat issues, but it seams like the power always goes out when ever I do that... LOL

    I guess I'm not sure why you would want to hib w/o the battery in anyway?
