Ok, this is strange. I can use my laptop just fine if it is running of the battery but when I plug it in it freezes after a few seconds. Now it runs fine on the bios and I can do a full surface scan when it is plug in but the moment it starts window and it is plug in it freezes. Does anyone know that my be the cause of it and how I my fix it.

kashb78, PS is just a SWAG. If that's the deal, you probably need a pro. Replacement is usually not a DIY job.
