My 4 year old Toshiba L500D -00X will not keep its charge unless it's already at 100%. The only way I can charge it is if I close the laptop and leave it be until fully charged. I had it in to be fixed a few months ago and the man who supposedly fixed it replaced both the charger and the battery, which I had replaced on my own a month prior. I haven't gotten it wet, I haven't dropped it, I haven't bent the cord, the fan is fine… I have no idea what is wrong with my laptop.
Usually I don't have to worry about my laptop randomly losing its charge unless the cord is out for too long and it becomes 99% charged, but my sister and I recently bought Minecraft and whenever I play it for longer than 5 minutes it says its plugged in, not charging and I have to shut off my laptop until it's fully charged again. This really gets on my nerves because I like spending time playing Minecraft with my sister.
Also, in case anyone says the problem is that it's just old and running out of life, I bought it brand new and didn't start using it until 2 years ago because my screen wasn't working, so while it's 4 years old I've only been using it for half its life.
I really hope someone can tell me what's wrong. I can't afford another laptop and this one holds a lot of sentimental value for me.
