Hey all,

Recently it has taken more and more fiddling to get the AC adaptor cord plugged in properly. The front LED lights (The DC-in and the Battery) keep flickering on and off. Right now, I've pushed the power plug in and held it there with a book, so it's charging properly.

Here's what I want to ask: I took the laptop to Toshiba Mobilecare. After a couple of days of testing they said that they had to replace the entire motherboard! Has anyone else had this problem? And should I trust Toshiba with something like a motherboard replacement? Is this an operation that can end in disaster?

I mean, I'd rather have to use a book to keep the plug in than risk having my bootiful lappy ruined!

Oh yes, and I bought this M30X in the UK. Am in Australia at the moment. If that helps...

M30X-104
P-M 1.5Ghz
512MB DDR RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 64MB
40GB HD


Thanks in advance,

Archy
