Laptop turns off when charger is plugged in !!

I have a hp pavillion dv 1000 - i have owned it for about three years, and recently just got a new hard drive and re-installed the entrie computer. But now a couple of months down the track, the computer shuts down every time i plug the charger in. I can only charge my computer when it is turned off, and only use it with battery power and not wall power - a huge problem because it means it only lasts about an hour before i have to go an recharge it!

Charger is bad and is not putting out the correct voltage which causes the computer to shut down. Battery probably isn't much good either if it only lasts for one hour. Get new batter and charger. Ebay'ers will help you find one cheap.

he sounds like a bit fiddler, plays about then throws up hands.
the main power in the PC is shorted.

My hp dv 8000 Pavillion laptop will turn on and then it immediatly shuts down after 5 seconds or so

Power drain would be a better solution in this case. 1.first shut down the comp 2.unplug the charger 3. remove the battery and after press and hold the power button for 60 seconds without any charger and the battery.After the 60 seconds replug the battery and the charger and turn the computer .
and if this doesn't help
then try to take out the ram or memory chip from the computer and place it back.
