Yeah i have asked a few local computer dudes what the problem might be and how much to fix and they tested it on another power adapter and it does the same thing, Unfortunetly they didnt have another battery to test if the battery is shorting out as they said that could also be another problem. But i reckon its the actual plug hole on the laptop itself. they said they cant fix that easily and gave me a price of $450, I can get another laptop for that!
