are 51m 7700 shutting down during charging.
Hey all,
Thought I'd post this in case anyone else was having the same problem. I've noticed that if I try and run the system while the battery is charging it's prone to shutting down itself. This problem never presents itself when the battery isn't charging, so I can only assume the extra heat being generated by the battery during charging is causing the system to shut itself down. Now it's rare that I would ever use the system on battery alone, but it's still an annoyance to have to leave it charge without being able to use it for a few hours after battery use. Did anyone else have the same problem

I use mine on battery weekly at least, and I've never had this problem. Call AW, but there seems to be something wrong somewhere. Try discharging the battery fully then leave the system powered down completely and charge the battery all the way to full (green). Then use some of the battery and see if its okay or not.

Get a program like motherboard monitor to check your CPU temps, your GPU shuts off when its almost too hot to touch underneath the computer on the cover thing. Try the FN+F2 function while charging and see if you can get a full charge.
