Hi. So, I was sleeping the other day, and when I woke up, I noticed there was no electricity in my room, so I checked the breakers box and exactly, my room's breaker was down... So, I unplugged everything, switch it on again, and plug thing by thing trying to find the problem, everything was ok till I plugged my laptop, inmediately the breaker switched off again, I tried connecting everything but the laptop, and it worked fine, so, my question is, why is this happening? what's my computer doing or what's going on with it? I'd appreciate if anyone knows cuz I haven't found any information online. I must say I keep my laptop on 24/7 cuz I host several hubs, and it doesn't have any overheating issues, and it has never restarted on itself either, it was everything fine till a couple of days ago. Anyway, thanks in advanced. =]
Btw, I completely misspelt Toshiba, I'm sorry. =/ It looks funny though.

It may be that your notebook has a short in the AC Adapter, and thats why the circuit breaker keeps going. It probably isn't a problem with the notebook itself. Check the AC Adapter plug, and the wires that lead from it, all the way up to the connector that plugs into your notebook, and see if there are any bare wires, or if there are cts to the wire.
Alos, if possible, try and use a different AC Adapter, just to confirm that it is the problem or not. If it isn't, then it may well be the notebook. -

ROFL, at title. But, Im not sure what to say. Maybe you could try calling your electrical company, or maybe you have something plugged in that you didn't have before, and that is drawinf alot of power from the breakers.

Ok, I thought about something plugged that it wasn't before, and that's not it, so I checked the cord, and yes, it was cracked, my dog bit it along time ago, and I fixed it with an isolated tape, the tape was off, and I didn't notice, so, I just fixed it again, and I'm testing it as I type this, so far, no prob. Thank you for the help. =]
