    Windows 8 Ethernet say's it's not plugged in.

    Hi. I've been wanting to use my Ethernet cable -it has plug-ins on both ends- and tried to connect my laptop to a modem or router, but I look at my Control Panel saying it's not plugged in. I don't believe the plug to be broken because it was rolled up and twist-tied when it was found. I tried...

    Windows 7 Problem with charging

    My laptop was charging all night - I even made sure it was plugged in and the blue light was on. It stayed at 3%. Now it's at 0% and it's plugged in. It says that it's plugged in but not charging, but how do I get it so it does charge?
