[atul vaidya]

Hi Friends,

On battery my compaq nx6120 works fine but when i connect it to power supply it hangs all of a sudden. i just see some arbit pop-ups on the screen and computer shuts down automatically. i have not experienced this in battery mode yet. i did a mcafee latest virus scan and it did not find anything. please suggest what to do
