I just bought a new laptop about a month ago now. I noticed the other day that the charger gets really hot. I had it plugged in lastnight charging, while charging I was playing Sims 4. When I shut down, the charger was almost too hot to hold for very long. Now I have had several laptops over the years and never had one get this hot. This can't be normal. The laptop runs great, no errors at all. What should I do?

replace it. This is an early sign of a failing AC/DC converter.

Thanks Ted, I will call today about getting the converter replaced! :)

any converter that is too hot to hold is melting internally. This is most likely caused by a coil short in the transformer.
