The Sequel to IPod Help: Laptop Help
 
Yeah, okay, there's something bothering me about my laptop.

See, it's currently plugged in, and it registers that it's operating on AC power. However, it shows the power for the battery, which is usually only used when not attached to AC, as continuing to go down. Anyone have any suggestions?

Maybe something's wrong with your battery? :blooconf:

I'm sorry I can't be of much more help-- I'm not a technically competant person.

So, while your notebook is plugged in, your battery's power level is decreasing? Is that what you're telling me? If so, then it sounds like there could be an issue with the battery.

Yeah, pretty much. It's been this way for awhile. HOwever, it doesn't decrease unless the battery power is below 100%. You think I should probably take it in to a shop to have someone look at it?

That's happened to me before, but it's never for more than a few minutes at a time. Yeah you need to take it in or at least ask a professional.
