ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by computerboy: 9:36am On Jun 19, 2019
Makschinchin:
Please o, what do you mean by AMD processor??



The thing is this..

My laptop was working very fine before it turned off one day due to power surge/current. At that point, the battery on my system began to read not detected and if I plug in to light without battery it works fine.

I taught it was only a battery error , so I tried getting a new battery.. But then I noticed the system couldn't charge up all the batteries I tried. The seller told me to see a technician to work on the board, probably a faulty charging IC.

I took it for repairs and the technician told me I'll get a new battery first so that he can use it to work on it. He charged me for an original battery and brought one which he used to work on the system.. After the job was done, I tested it, the system was charging up the battery and I felt okay..

But when I got back home, i charged the battery to full capacity. I tried the system without plugging to light, just using the battery, only for it to suddenly shut down after about 30mins.. I turned it on again only for it to shut down suddenly again within 20mins without any warning..

I talked to the technician about it and he told me to bring it back for him to check.. I went back to him, he observed it, applied thermal paste turned it back on but noticed the system still shuts down abruptly after some minutes. He took out the battery and went ahead to change it.. The first one he brought also shut down after some minutes. The second one he brought didn't work on the system.

So he brought a third one. I tried using it there and it worked for about 45 minutes before turning off (while i still had about 50℅ battery life left). Tried turning it on at his office but it wouldn't come up, so we plugged it into light to charge (he said it was a new battery and needed to charge to full before usage). Since time was far spent and Lagos traffic is unbearable, I decided to take it home to complete the charging.

I took it home, completed the charging, plugged it out of light and used it again only for it to still shut down after about 30mins.. I immediately turned it on again and it went off after 10 mins. I turned it on again and it shut down after 20-30 mins..

Please gurus in the house help me out, could it be from the system or the battery itself?? I have attached a picture of the battery (5200mAh) he sold to me at original price. Please help me check if its an original replacement battery because he charged me for an original battery price more than the regular market price.. Could the fault be from the system or the battery??

Sorry for the long epistle, I just had to bare it all to seek advice from you guys.. Thanks for your anticipated responses

Cc: Udemzy.udex, Compute.rboy, horllar.my, Raza.k5, kunlef.orreal, po.limaf and other gurus, your candid advice is needed
Since it now detects and charges battery but only shut down when using on battery alone, go and get original battery first and test with it. Only then can we conclude its motherboard issue. Motherboard is always the last thing you want to work on....

As for your pic, that's not an original (OEM) battery but an aftermarket replacement battery. The one we call China battery and worst case, it's not even brand new. Brand new of replacement batteries last 2hrs or less then imagine the used one. Well... to be fair, OEM batteries are scarce to get unless you're lucky to get from a repairer if not you'll order it yourself from USA.

My point is, battery is still the suspect till you use OEM that has been tested to work on another laptop and it shut down in yours

It's the thought that matters bro. Some usually forget who helped them climb. Remember Wizkid never opened gate for samklef after he made it

okay
Kindly look at the screen shot below I believe you've seen sonething like this before.

It happened when formatting of my system went wrong. The problem is a BIOS one. Thou I have the authentication password to login the system the problem now is I don't want it to display this dell authentication password when I turn on the laptop, I want it to boot normal.
shut down and leave it for 1 min then turn it on and press f2 key repeatedly till you see BIOS screen. Use arrow keys and navigate to security tab on the right. You'll see administrator password, from there you can disable it

Get bootable Windows CD or USB and install Windows on it or meet someone who can. Pirated Windows CD is 200 naira and you can pay the person 2k to install it for you. Remember to install drivers after Windows

Somebody pls help, virtually all the letters
on my PC keyboard are not working.. What baffles me is everything worked fine yesterday when i was using it..only for me to switch it on now and realize the letters on the keyboard are not working.. Pls help i have office work to do on it.
All of them? Go to device manager and delete your keyboard driver then restart. If it is same then you might be needing a new keyboard... meet a repairer to check it out
