Not really sure where to go with this, but I'll start here.
I inherited an ROG G74S from son-in-law.
I had to rebuild the OS due to his poor maintenance and poor antimalware habits.
I replaced the DVD player, Power supply and battery.
I upgraded the OS from Win 7 to Win10.
The battery will not recharge. It is sitting at 1%, and when I power up, as soon as I log in, and Win10 gets gets settled, I can see the battery indicator shows it is charging, but after about 30-40 seconds, it stops. After a matter of weeks of being powered up, it will eventually change to indicate 2% charge. and, I can run the LT off battery for 15-20 minutes, before it whines and shuts down.
So, the charger seems to actually function, but only for that part of a minute each time I boot up.
Something turns the charger off, it seems.
Any suggestions?
