Hi! I got a Lenovo ThinkPad for Christmas 8 months ago, and when I got it, I started setting it up, you know setting up my profile and whatnot. I made a profile and started installing games and all that kind of stuff, so after I did all that, I unplugged it cause I wanted to put it away into the case because I had somewhere to be the next morning, so I wanted to put it away early to get it over with. Anyway, when I unplugged it that first night, I expected the battery to just start slowly draining, like all laptops do, but instead the laptop just INSTANTLY shut down, just poof, black screen, so I started it up unplugged, and it drained very quickly. At first, I thought maybe it was because the battery wasn't charged up, but it was still odd how it just shut off instantly when it was unplugged. I thought it was odd, but put it in the case anyway and went to bed. I used it for a few days, plugged in at all times, however one day, I was playing a game, and the computer accidentally got unplugged, I don't remember how being it was about 7 or 8 months ago, but anyway like I said it was accidentally unplugged and once again, POOF black screen. This time I was very irritated cause I had to restart everything I had done in my game in that session. Before the computer was unplugged I hovered over the charging icon, and seen it was at 100%, so I was very confused now cause it should have kept going even after it was unplugged, because since it is at 100% it would only make sense. So I once again, stupidly, just forgot about it and kept doing what I was doing. Now months later, it is still doing the same thing. I am not too good with computers, but I knew enough to look into the power settings in control panel, but that was useless. I did some other things to mess with power settings but nothing, The computer works great and as long as it is plugged in, but it is very annoying and odd how this does it when its unplugged. I did some research and some others with my same computer are also having some issues, but none got any good answers for me anyway. Some answers said the battery is old, or could be damaged. Like I said though, I would maybe think the battery is damaged, but I have been having this issue since day 1, the battery was never used before, so unless it is defected, that cannot be the case. I also seen some people say they ordered a new battery and it didn't do anything. I should have taken this into account back when I got it, and maybe taken it to a shop. I just didn't care that much at the time, now I really need to find a fix to this issue. Thanks in advance to everyone who answers to this question. :)
