5 week old Dell Inspiron 6000. When I unplug the AC adapter, the screen
flickers/flashes until I re-plugit in.
Went through diagnostics with Dell, new battery, etc. and they said it is
the software related to the power management system. We did get it up in
non-windows environment and it stopped flickering.
They want me to go back and use the factory settings but I would prefer not
to with the programs and data I have since installed. I have a back-up drive
on order anyway. The programs added since new include Adobe's premiere
elements, Canon driver for camera, print drivers, firefox, and AOL including
AIM (teenage girl uses machine).
Any idea of what could be causing this or a "quick" fix. It's frustrating
having a non-portable laptop.
