What can I do about my laptop ac adapter overheating?
I own a Gateway NV53. I received it as a Christmas present last year. I'm now on my third laptop charger. My first one, the one that came with it, caught a small fire on the wire. It burned through it. I bought a new one. The next one overheated and literally was almost melted when I pulled it out. it was bending like rubber the metal part that goes into the port . I molded it back and it worked for about the next 5 hours. Then when I used it later on it stopped working. I'm on my third one that I just received today. This one needs to be moved around a bit for it to work. I'm not sure if it's the port or the ac adapter that's not working. However, my ac adapter, just like all the others, is overheated when I take it out. My charging method is simple I charge it when my battery life is at about 10 % and when it reaches 100 % i unplug it. I don't want to keep wasting my money on chargers because they keep overheating. Is there anything that anyone can suggest to help me? Whether it be for the port or ac adapters. I don't think I have a warranty by the way.each adapter that i've purchased is a different one. not the same one. the one that caught on fire was the one that came with the laptop.

Laptop AC adapter overheat?
I was using my laptop today and all of a sudden the ac adapter stopped providing power. I checked the adapter and found that it was beeping and kind hot. So I unplugged it. I didn't even use it for a long time today. I'm guessing it overheated. How do I make it work again?
