Hi, thanks for the response.
I spent a few more hours looking through other forums, and it appears to be a problem with the battery. It doesn't hold a charge anymore and it shuts itself down whenever it gets to less than 1%, even on AC power. Seems that taking the battery out "solves" the problem, at least until I can buy a new one. Thanks again, and sorry for the trouble.
