rerhji:First,your communication skill is very poor,next time calm down,use paragraphs where appropriate. Have you been playing the game on the PC before with no issue? I think it's one of the following: The PC spec is lower than the minimum recommended for the game. Your PC overheated during the game due to the game high graphics or non working fan or poor ventilation. There was a power surge that affected your PC motherboard and damaged your battery. |

Simply put, your laptop s battery is dead. Try replacing it. However Before you do that for confirmation try using your laptop without the battery and see what happens |

Greatzeus:Thanks for the correction sir, i hope that doesn't mean the motherboard is condemned. i'm sure d battery is. |

Depends on the extent of the damage on the board but since you said it's returns current it will work. |

rerhji:get a new charger first and try again. charger itself is most likely damaged. then check for other issues like battery/motherboard. |

rerhji: I understand the situation here. When you connect the charger ,the light indicator on your charger will go off immediately. There is a short on your laptop motherboard, some engrs will say "e dey return light" ![]() Take your laptop to a laptop technician,you might be lucky it will just be a small capacitor, sometimes it's a mosfet . As it is now even if you use another charger or battery,the problem will still be there. You need to fix that first. |

SeedofDavid: He shouldn't get a charger first. Unless if the charger is those fake ones,I'll advise him to get the Original one but if he is using Original charger then no need cos even if he get another charger he will still experience the same thing,he needs to work on the motherboard first before any other thing. |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by SeedofDavid: 11:55am On Dec 26, 2019 |
udemzyudex:I advised from first hand experience of a similar situation I had. Doesn't mean the charger is bad, its just to help him narrow down the issue and solution. |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by SeedofDavid: 11:57am On Dec 26, 2019 |
udemzyudex:he said the charger returns the current so I'm sure thats the course of the issue. I will not be surprised if it also shocks him. |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by udemzyudex(m): 1:31pm On Dec 26, 2019 |
SeedofDavid: The question should be what's making the charger to return the current immediately he plug it to the charging port. |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by udemzyudex(m): 1:41pm On Dec 26, 2019 |
SeedofDavid:A I'm advising as a chip level laptop technician. I didn't say the charger is bad , however a Knock off charger probably the ones sold for #1k can cause a lot of damage to the motherboard,that's why I always advise clients to get original charger. However, the motherboard is faulty, that's where the problem is. |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by Atandajugunu(m): 10:38pm On Dec 26, 2019 |
The problem is from the motherboard..A capacitor close to the power IC on the motherboard has got burnt thereby functioning as ordinary wire which makes it to return current...U can contact me or get a skill computer engineer who can work on mother board...or just buy new mother board if u have the money. |

Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by Atandajugunu(m): 9:06am On Dec 27, 2019 |
Some issues are fixable on the motherboard... |
Re: Pls Can Any Engineer Suggest What Is Wrong With My PC by SeedofDavid: 11:32am On Dec 27, 2019 |
udemzyudex:Possibly a bad capacitor... where is op self. Probably already sorted himself. 1 Like |
