Faxking laptops...

So...This week has been going pretty shitty.

My laptop's charger will make the screen turn EXTREMELY dark and make my laptop do strange noises at the top right corner. (of the base)

I can only charge my laptop when it is off, and even then it charges at an extremely slow rate. I have replaced the battery and searched in google but nothing appears to work. Anyone mind giving me some help?

P.S. Internet postponed again....Minimum is 2 weeks -_-


I am a huge hotgreen please throw tomatoes at my face.


It was the charger, it fucked up -_-

If you dont know what the "brightness" setting is, dont post. Plugging it in doesnt give a computer monitor an extra 1.21 gigawatts and magically make it brighter.
Anyways hotgreen, have you replaced the adapter itself? What "noises" does it make?

It's the laptop itself that makes the noise. The adapter just makes it start fucking up.

The noise is to the top right of the number pad.

Have you messed with your power settings? I doubt its causing those problems, but you can customize the advanced settings for almost all "power plans". I set a "cooldown mode" for mine which lowers the processor runs at 75%

New news.

I just found out that the bottom right of my screen is EXTREMELY hot which leads me to think the charge is outputting it in the wrong place or it's putting too much energy.

Any tips?


P.S. I dunno how to use external monitor. @deacon, nope

Look on your sides or back for a VGA(blue) or DVI(white) slot, get vga or dvi cord and connect laptop to monitor. Go Control Panel ->Hardware and Sound -> Connect to an external display (Under Display in blue), click detect then click identify. Change Display to the number the identify showed on the monitor. Profit?

If you have friends that pull pranks on you, check and see if they changed it where the laptop will dim more when hooked to a power cord than it would on battery.

I hate to say but I think your laptop is about to pull a Snivy and light on fire.
