I wonder if anyone can help - I have an HP Pavilion laptop, bought in Italy about 5 years ago - the computer itself seems ok still, but it keeps switching itself off and I think this is due to a bad connection with the charger (the battery gave up the ghost long ago). I tried a new charger (supposedly offical HP one but I have my doubts) bought on ebay but it doesn't work at all. Does anyone have any experience of this - is it worth trying another new charger or could it be something more sinister wrong with the laptop itself or perhaps the internal connection to the power supply? I'm hoping I don't have to end up buying a new laptop but can solve this another way.

It could be a poor internal connection, and that possibly requires a resolder or replace of the mains socket on the laptop itself, not expensive or difficult to do. If it's not that then it could be the failure of the power supply interface (possibly the power board if your laptop uses one) but having that repaired would be cheaper than getting a new laptop.

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying.
