Hello,
I have a TOshiba satellite A200, it has a power issue where it will glitch in some form when it is plugged into it's power lead. They include, but not limited to: Freezing irrocoverably, freezing irrocoverably and making loud noises, the screen going blank during start-up, failure to load the hard disk. I have:
- Replaced the power jack (The problem persists)
- Placed an SSD into it

Please tell me what the issue is if you know, thanks in advance.
