Same problem with my RPresario R3000. The power cord won't stay connected or the slightest movement makes it disconnect the AC power. I just called HP, the manufacturer, they told me the problem "probably" was with the case but that they've never had another complaint about it. They said they'd be glad to try to fix it for $300. I also have problems with my HP officjet printer, it knocks and needs resetting after each page printed. I remember when HP was a good brand! I told them I will never, ever buy another HP and to make note of that! I purchased a Gateway notebook for about $350 and it is great. It's a much better product.
