Presario shuts down as if overheating ONLY when plugged in

‎11-03-2009 08:18 AM

If I run off the battery, I can search the web, view flash sites, watch movies, etc.  But if I try the same thing with it plugged in the fans get louder and the computer completely shuts off.  Any thoughts as to why the laptop works harder when plugged in?  Is this a problem with the AC adapter or the computer?  Fans have been cleaned recently.
