HP Recommended

I have an old HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk0xoox that slows down significantly when plugged in. It had windows on it when I got it, I tried everything I could think of.  No luck. So I installed Linux, same problem. I thought maybe it was the power supply, changed it... same problem. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? 

Getting a different computer is not a solution. This one will do it's job just fine if this problem is solved. No sense in wasting a new computer on a simple automation task. Note that the problem existed BEFORE I changed or installed anything. Also,  I got it from a pawn shop, so. . who knows what someone else did.
