Re: Problem with my kids computers.
yeah... their internet was working last night and as I was talking my son through the process the computer just shut down. Now when that happens to a desktop that's an indication that the power supply is going the way of the dinosaur. how do I replace a laptop power supply? is it a matter of replacing the power cord?

Have you contacted your ISP? They should be able to tell you if it is on their end. If this is not happening regularly I would guess it is a temporary outage.
