    Laptop won't work without the charger plugged in


    I recently purchased a refurbished Dell Latitude 5580. It will not boot up or work at all without the charger plugged in. I looked in the Bios and it recognized the charger wattage and battery health was excellent. I've tried opening a command prompt and typing powercfg /batteryreport and all it says is battery life report file saved to file path. Any suggestions?

    :)

    Laptop goes to sleep mode after plugging in charger

    Hello.

    I have a ASUS X550C laptop. The original charger broke, so i bought a charger for it at my local market (the brand is "Innergie"), which also works for ASUS laptops. Now since i got this charger, i was experiencing issues where my laptop would randomly go to sleep mode, however, i resolved this issue by turning computer on, removing the charger, and plugging it back in. That seemed to fix it. However, recently, this method stopped working. My computer runs completely fine when it is unplugged, however, when i plug it in, i get a "Low battery" warning (even though i HAD 72% battery), and the laptop immediately goes to sleep mode. Trying to turn it on is useless. It will only turn on if the charger isn't plugged.

    Any advice?

    PS: I have already changed all my power & sleep options. Everything is set to "Never".

    My computer will lag out when I plug it in. (Don't know if it's the right section)

    Sounds like some software is optimizing when plugged in. This would draw from your CPU causing a frame rate drop. Some programs are designed to only optimize when the laptop is plugged in.

    What security software suit are you running? Can you give a list of non-windows processes when plugged in? Give it about 10 minutes plugged in before gathering the list. This will allow any program optimizations to start and bog the CPU.

    I don't think there is anything wrong with his Laptop. This smells of a software issue.
