You forgot to state the make and model of your laptop as well as the operating system. e.g hp pavilion d900 windows 7. Has the laptop suffered any shock resulting from being dropped? You said it stays on for 3 hours after unplugging, is it the charging indicator or the laptop that stays on? If it's the laptop, does it stay on for longer on a normal day? I believe your battery may be the culprit.

If you have had any issues with you computer and phoned the help line number one of the common things they will ask you to do is an ATX reset, Basically this just resets the power supply in your computer and in most cases can solve some power issues.

How to perform an ATX reset:

Disconnect the power from your computer.
If possible remove the battery and external devices.
Hold the power button for about 15 seconds
Put the battery back in the computer
Reconnect the power
Press the power button to turn on your computer

If this does not solve the power issue it may be the hardware its self which is faulty and will need repairing or replacing.
