laptop power setting

hmm here is the scenario, in the past months my battery become dead. Actually I am not sure if its really dead because it say it has 89% of power and charging, but if i pulled out the charger it will turn off. :( then I tried to insert it to the another laptop, and the same problem occurred. I don't know if it is the battery circuit become faulty. Then now I have a new battery and it is really good, BUT there is something I noticed, when my processor goes high or my laptop used a lot of resource in the just a matter of time, my power setting changed from charging to not charging and to charging just so quick, i dont know why it is happening, actually I already noticed it before I but a new battery, while running with my dead battery and the adapter. why it is changing from charging to not charging, if the system used a lot of resource? what could be the possible cause of it? EDIT: BTW The charging light indicator of the laptop will blink if this is problem is happening.

The AC adapter provides a specific amount of power. Typical DC output is 19 V with max. 4.74 A (see label on your adapter) which is 90 W. This power is reduced by the efficiency of the internal power supply and battery charging device. Typical efficiencies are 80 to 90%. So you may have about 80 W of useable power from external source. When your system load is high it may require more than these 80 W. Then the additional power is drawn from the battery which is then discharging. For that reason you should not use the system when charging an empty battery or when the battery level is low. Then the battery is not able to deliver the additional power which will be usually indicated by a low battery indicator.

ohh there is something I notice lately on my laptop, when it is on high performance power plan it constantly draining the battery even its say it is charging, then if i switch it in to power saving the power percentage of the battery will become stationary, then if i will put my to hibernation or turned it off with the adapter it will charged. could it be my adapter is already been faulty? ohh by the way I also tried to pull out the battery and switch on my laptop with the adapter, it will just turn on for about a 1 to 2 second then it suddenly lose power and turned off.

Yes, it seems that your AC adapter can not provide enough power. Such adapters should be able to power a laptop without battery including start up where more power is used than during normal operation. Another indication would be long charging times.

Thank you so much, I just buy a new adapter and everything back to normal. BTW could you give me some light why the AC adapter lose some ampere output when the time goes? actually I am using that adapter for almost more than 2 years thank you.

I have no idea what happened to your adapter. Such failures are rather seldom. I would guess that a single electronic component is defective or there is a cold solder joint resulting in a lower current limiting.
