Compaq computer works, but won't read that AC adapter is plugged in, battery runs out
Hi,
My computer was recently repaired, and worked fine... then stopped... then worked again perfectly for a month... then stopped again. I have figured out, that essentially the computer works fine, the battery is fine, and the AC adapter, and where it plugs into is fine. However, for some reason, the computer stops reading that an AC is plugged in, doesn't get power, and therefore, the computer dies, because I can't ever get the battery charged back up, and it's not accepting power from the adapter. What can be done? It is working now, but because it is not reading power, in about five minutes it will die again... and then for no rhyme or reason that I can figure out-- it won't read that there is an AC adapter... and then w/ out me even touching it, a couple of days, or hours, all of the sudden it will read that there is an adapter again, and will work normally again. Is there anything I can do to resolve this in this moments when it does work?
