Hello All, I live in the U.S. and I have been a proud owner of an Acer Aspire 5520-5912 laptop for about 2 years now. the laptop has been great. For whatever my needs are, it gets them done in a timely fashion, and, I really have no complaints. Except for 1, and, I wish it was a minor complaint. For some reason, this laptop keeps going through power supplies. It has (in the 2 years that I've owned it) burned out 2 original Acer power supplies, and, one universal. I am on my 4th power supply now, so, you can see my concern. I work in the IT field and know my way around computers (and have for the past 10 years). I have never seen anything like this before. I've seen cases were a power supply can ruin a laptop, but, never the other way around. I also want to add that I'm not using this laptop in the same power outlet all of the time. I have used it all over my house, in my friends house, in my neighbor's house, all giving me the same result. A useless power supply. Is there anyone out there that can shed some light on this situation? can a faulty laptop continue to work while shorting out power supplies? I have no ideas at all at this point. For the amount of money that i've spent on power supplies, I cant help but feel that I could have "almost" purchased a new laptop by now. Thank you in advance for any replies
