T41P seems stuck on battery power

#1 Post by plumguy » Mon Aug 08, 2011 6:12 pm

Got a T41P laptop running WinXP
It seems to only be running on battery
even when battery and AC power cord
are connected.
How can I change to AC power?
Help! :(

Would one of the mods kindly move this topic to the T4X forum where it will receive proper attention.

Thanks :)

Welcome plumguy! Let's start by making sure the AC adapter is working correctly. Measure the voltage (if any) the adapter is putting out and report back.
