computers suck.
 

ok so my laptop started acting up a little the other day. like i put it in hibernate and i come back and the screen is blank no matter what i do so i have to restart it. so then yesterday the batrtery said 3% left and didnt change no matter what i did. today it said 5% left and didnt go away.then tonight i go to use it and it was really slow and i had to push the keys really hard for it to work and it was reallllllly slow. and froze sometimes. i take out the battery and it works like brand new.?!?!?!?!?!?!


any ideas?

its an acer btw.

Spill anything on it? Maybe soda or some thing that dries sticky? Either that or you have a major viris that doesnt kick in until a certain amount of time on the computer. Id start with reinstalling windows.

might want a new battery as well

how is it if you remove the battery and plug it in??

I had this problem with my laptop when I replaced the charger. I bought a "universal" type charger, and it had a switch on it that had a certain amount of volts, because some laptops require a diff rating. Long story short, I pulled my hair out as to why it would stay at 3 percent. I was about to chuck the charger against the wall when I noticed a switch there, and viola!

its the original charger and it has been working fine but i gues sthe battery is crap. and i havent spilled anything sticky on it.

small hammers work great just ask al. LOL

hammers and duct tape fix everything.
