    I was going to leave when I stumbled on the wire cord. The computer dropped heavily on the floor and was turned off. There were about 20 programs running and one of them was an anti-virus software scanning my hard drive..
    I restarted it immediately and it still works! Must be careful next time. It's better if you put the battery in the laptop even when using AC. I hope there wont be any hidden damages inside.

    Maybe it was better if the power was cut before it hit the ground. Perhaps the HDD had time to park the heads? Otherwise you might now have some bad sectors on the HDD.
