had my comp. for about 2 yrs. just recently got a pop up screen come on that says " output is too low for this computer"   when i'm recharging it???  never had this happen before?  it;s the same charger that came with my computer.. why now is it saying this?

Doing a quick Google.... it sounds like the charger.... things I would try...

• double check the connections are TIGHT.  You might have a loose connection.... this happened to me.
• what happens if you remove the battery for 5 minutes.  Then reinsert it for charging (make sure the battery is properly locked in!)
• try getting a second charger?  If you don't have one, bring the laptop into Best Buy and test it with a universal charger.  Your charger may be getting too old and needs a replacement.
  Universal chargers are very affordable, however, not all laptops like universal chargers.  Test it before walking out the door.
