I recently discovered that whenever I plug my ac adapter in, it has trouble staying connected and charging if I move my laptop just a little. Also, the tip of the plug (the metal part) is super hot (enough to burn my finger) apparently melted some of the plastic away afte extended usage and that is the reason it won't stay connected unless plugged in a certain angle (it's an old ac adapter anyways). I am going to order in another AC Adapter as this is what many people with my exact problem have told me to do... However, here comes the real question:
Is it fine for me to still use my computer for a while even while the tip of the ac adapter is really hot? Or will it burn my power jack or something around the lines?
Additional info:
My comp is at a steady 35 degrees browsing and 60 while gaming so I doubt my computer temperature (internally) isn't the problem.
My battery, according to Windows 7, also says "Consider replacing your battery" but it still charges fine. I'm also ordering a backup battery just in case that one really does need to be changed, but the only reason why I keep it in my laptop atm is because my ac adapter randomly disconnects with the slightest movements sometimes and so my comp shuts off without it.
