Laptop hangs when charging.

[Adomzy]

My laptop hangs whenever it's charging. Even after it has been unplugged, it still lags. I usually need to unplug and then restart it before it starts working well. Please how do I fix this?

I tried all these but it still did not work. I then performed a hard reset on it, but the hanging became worse. I decided to manage it like that, and after installing the drivers, my keyboard and TouchPad stopped working totally. That's where I am now.
