Won't recognize AC power
Toshiba M205--from time to time it won't recognize that I've connected the AC power. It acts like it is still running on battery. Nothing wrong with AC connection. Item on Toshiba tech support seemed to suggest loading latest power saver utility. I did that; no help. Called tech support and only suggestion was to do a system restore to last time it accepted AC power. Didn't work. For no reason, it will suddenly accept AC power. Anyone seen this before? Does it sound like hardware or software.

Sorry the Tablet PC is having trouble. Since the system restore didn't work then you've probably eliminated software. Pull the battery and see if something isn't seated properly. Next, if you have a spare battery then use it and see what happens.
