There is a micro switch inside of your laptop that sounds like it has gone. happens to alot of laptops your best bet is to check your garantee if its still indate id send it back because its nearly inposible to fix yourself unless your really good with a soldering iron.
its hard to say where exactly it is, depending on the board to, maybe there is some where you can get the board diagrammes for it. normally its a little yellow box close to where the power suplly plugs into the board. really is not easy to remove them and to resolder them, i dont even knwo where to get this micro switch, but its a commen thing to go in laptops. what ive done before is had a look at the switch and there is a number or name on them, search it on google and you can fidn the company that makes these switches, with my luck i requested a free sample of this switch and got it for nothing 3 of them so had a few spare if i burnt the odd one with soldering iron. hmm i think myself best bet is to look out for a secound hand laptop on ebay for parts dosnt have to be exact model but close enough. and take the micro switch from that one into yours. the switch turns on to chrage when power is pluged in and tells laptop to use main power, it also siwtches back to battery when wire is removed, i forget even the name to this switch buit all i can tell you normally they are a little yellow box close to the power point on laptop, about the sixe of a bean hehe closest thing i can think off. hope this helps

Thanks j-cker915. Can you tell me what to look for? I'm a communications technician, and my son is studying to be a Med-Tech(he's pretty good with the soldering iron) I think between the two of us, we can manage to do the repair. This laptop is long out of warranty.
What does the micro switch look like, and where is it located?
I appreciate the help.
