I'm currently looking into a new laptop, however, I am faced with a dilemma. I normally go for laptops with an Intel processor, however, while looking, I found a great deal on a laptop with an AMD processor. The laptop I had been looking at was a dual core Intel core i5 - 7200U. Intel Laptop Specs: Windows 10 Home 64 Intel® Core™ i5-7200U (2.5 GHz, up to 3.1 GHz, 3 MB cache, 2 cores) + Intel® HD Graphics 620 15.6" diagonal HD SVA BrightView WLED-backlit (1366 x 768) 8 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA 3-cell, 41 Wh Lithium-ion prismatic Battery Full-size island-style keyboard with integrated numeric keypad 802.11b/g/n (1x1) Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo HP Wide Vision HD Camera with dual array digital microphone (Mineral Silver) B&O PLAY; HP Audio Boost; Dual speakers Cost - $440 The laptop with the AMD processor has a quad-core AMD A10 9620P, or AMD A12 9720P. AMD Laptop Specs: Windows 10 Home 64 AMD Quad-Core A10-9620P APU (2.5 GHz, up to 3.4 GHz burst frequency, 2 MB cache) + AMD Radeon™ R5 Graphics or AMD Quad-Core A12-9720P APU (2.7 GHz, up to 3.6 GHz burst frequency, 2 MB cache) + AMD Radeon™ R7 Graphics 15.6" diagonal HD SVA BrightView WLED-backlit (1366 x 768) 8 GB DDR4-1866 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA 3-cell, 41 Wh Lithium-ion prismatic Battery DVD-Writer Full-size island-style keyboard with integrated numeric keypad HP Wide Vision HD Camera with dual array digital microphone (Mineral Silver) 802.11b/g/n (1x1) Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth® 4.2 combo Cost - $360 or $400 I'm just looking for everyone's opinion on which laptop I should get. If you know a better laptop with a 15 inch screen, that costs $500 or less, let me know.

I have tried pretty much all of this except unplugging while in bios, so Ill give that a shot. Yeah, I feel that that is most likely it, but I just want to see if there's a solution. I probably won't get a new battery, since ill have enough money to get a pretty good hp omen in a couple months.

So I currently own a cheap acer laptop, primarily used for schoolwork, and while I am saving up to get a new, much better laptop, I ran into an issue with my laptop recently. Out of nowhere, my laptop's battery stopped working. My computer has not given me any error messages, the battery icon just says " plugged in, not charging". This has posed an issue, as in order to use my laptop, I have to keep it plugged in constantly, and when unplugged, it completely shuts down. I have tried quite a few different solutions, but not a single one has worked. Some of this is centered around the fact that the battery is not removed easily, and when i have attempted to take apart my laptop, i wasn't even able to pry it open. If anyone knows a way for me to fix this problem until I can get a new laptop in a couple of months that would be great. Here are all the details about my laptop: Laptop Model: Acer ES1-511 Operating System: Windows 10 Home Version 1703 OS Build 15063.413 Processor: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2930 @ 1.83 GHz Ram: 4GB 64 bit operating system The main apps I use are google chrome, microsoft word programs and netflix. I also occasionally run photoshop and twitch if that helps at all. I would really appreciate any help getting this fixed, and if any other info is needed I can provide it.
