    Hi,

    i have a strange issue with my notebook. it is since the weekend. (i think) i changed nothing in configuration or something.

    When it is turned off and pluged into to AC, the battery is charging (indicator light on front is on).

    When i turn the computer on, the charging indicator turns off and windows says something similar to "AC Connected but not charging".

    The battery power is going down and its not charging.

    Even after 3 hours when the computer is turned off, it has only 20% of battery power when i turn it back on. So it charges very slowly.

    Has somebody the same problems or can help me?
