Notebook crashes while on battery
While using my notebook on battery it crashes. There is no BSOD and I need to plug in to AC and turn back on.
When I turn it back on the battery level can sometimes be at 41%. It does not give a warning or noise just switches off.
I have tried to follow some of the previous posting instructions but not been able to work out the problem. The battery check says 100% and I have used compressed air to blow out the vents.
The notebook is 18 months old, I have extended warranty but if it is the battery I assume it wont be covered.
