Re: HP Pavilion zv5240us Notebook won't stay plugged in!!!

Hi mrspedlock. You would have to determine if your power port or power cord is causing the problem. If the power cord is the culprit, you can get a replacement cord. If its the port, you would probably have to replace the system board.  If it is a desktop, and its the port at fault you could buy a replacement power supply.
If you can get the model number of your computer, I can provide you with more detailed information.
