Hello, I am having trouble with my Aspire laptop. When it is plugged in it will sometimes make a beep, and the battery icon on the screen will go from charging to not charging. This will usually go on a few times as I unplug it and plug it back in, and I've had it go back and forth like this and in the middle of charging and not charging my computer would suddenly die.
I looked around at some of the suggestions on this forum, specifically the ones by egydiocoelho, JackE, and MaClane, and have deleted the ACPI Compliant Control driver, turned off fast startup, reset the battery, taped down the button on the motherboard near the hard drive and ram that supposedly has to be pressed down in order to prevent random dying, unplugged/plugged back in the connections to the motherboard for the battery and the charging port, and bought a new charging cable.
As I wrote this post I was able to be on battery without the charger and keep several chrome tabs open while also playing youtube and my computer didnt suddenly die while draining down to 20% battery, so hopefully some of those things I tried were able to fix it dying at random?
Nonetheless I still have the problem of it going from charging to not charging randomly and would appreciate any help you can offer.
*edit* apparently I also had counter strike running in the background while on battery which I hope is good to have been able to run so much
