    Laptop not charging.
    Basically yesterday, I by mistakenly dropped my laptop whilst playing FM12. I put it back on, and it was working perfectly charging. I put it on today and it's not charging. Basically when where you connect the charger into the laptop, usually a blue light shows up to highlight it's charging. But then also the on my laptop screen, its keep flashing on the battery icon, that it's charging and not charging. I'm a very worried, whether I may need a new battery, but any help would be welcomed.

    yhh probably your battery has become loose or some connection inside...also the socket where the charging lead goes on could have been damaged, best to have it checked

    It's really weird, because it charges when the Laptop is off but when it's on it doesn't charge.
