    i leave my t500 on ac while gaming, after some time it stops charging on ac completely. it takes a long time before the ac charger is recognized. is this due to high temperatures? how do i rectify this.

    Thanks in advance

    Probably due to the charge threshold settings. Check them in the power manager application. Honestly, I have mine set to start charging at 60% and stop at 95% because it isn't good to constantly top off the battery.
