    Sounds like your power converter you are using may be failing or not delivereing enough power when your laptop is sucking up the juice. And i have a theory and i dont know if it is right but plausible, that do to copy right laws they are cappable of shutting down the computer if its tempted. i dont know if tis possible or actually true but it sounds liek your havving a power issue.
