My laptop (precision m4600) noticeably slows when running off the charger/power supply.
After a bit of Googling it seems the power supply might be the cause.
Any way to fix it or will a non Dell power supply avoid the issue. Can't seem to get a definitive answer from the net.
I'm reluctant to spend big money on a genuine Dell item for an old laptop.
Anyone had experience of this problem and solved it?
