I've recently been having a problem where my computer simply shuts off when running on battery. The battery itself is relatively new (~2 years) and still holds a charge fine but regardless of what that charge might be, the computer still shuts off as though the battery were suddenly removed. I now just keep my computer plugged in all the time with the battery removed but obviously that defeats the purpose of having a laptop. Occasionally I do forget and the computer runs fine on battery power for up to an hour and then there's the sickening click of the hard drive shutting down and that's that. I'm not exactly sure what's going on but it's really starting to become a problem.
