    Hi, Whenever I have my laptop unlugged then replugged, Windows will immediately lock up and need to restart. The weird thing is that the numlock, capslock, and scroll lock buttons will work. Is there any way to fix this?

    Sounds like your battery isn't working correctly, or isn't holding a charge.

    Hey. I think people were having this issue with certain video card drivers. Using sager's or the 179.28 drivers from the nvidia website seemed to solve it.

    The battery works fine, I can use the laptop without a cord but its just when its being unplugged and re plugged.

    I am currently using 179 and went to laptopvideo2go to see if that made a difference and it didn't.

    It could also be an issue with your chipset drivers; are those up-to-date?

    Does your power plug just randomly fall out?

    Check out the owners thread. This is a common problem. You are probably going to have to get a new brick from Sager, amongst other things. A few of us have had this issue. I had to send my laptop back into Sager for them to replace my brick, change my video card drivers, and change my BIOS to a new version to get everything fixed.
