No, it happens on battery and mains but that said now let me correct myself a little, it had a short on keyboard and on USB mass storage device of 125GB but on a smaller pen drive it did not have a short.

Hi Eleanor, Does the problem go away if you take out the battery and run on the mains adapter instead on its own? I've seen a bad battery short down the mains supply as well.

If I plug in an external keyboard to any of the USB sockets, the machine immediately switches itself off!!! Now if I plug in a thumb drive to any of these USB ports the same thing happens. Apart from telling me to bin it! any suggestions as to what the problem might be. If I let the laptop soldier on, as it is, it is functioning once I do not go to plug-in a peripheral.
