I can run Sims 4 in laptop mode which I guess is less graphic intense? This is a more recent issue The laptop I got two years ago. It worked fine and then I think a short in the charger was making it difficult for the charge to hold properly. When I was playing Sims 4 it would be fine until I opened a safe then it would act like it couldn't hold the charge switching between the battery seemingly being plugged in to unplugged. Then it would abruptly shut down. I bought a new adapter and now it will hold its charging normal circumstances. I can play other games like Skyrim, or Bioshock but as soon as I try to play Sims 4 (when it's not in laptop mode) it will do the same thing. Acting like the battery isn't holding its charge and abruptly shutting off. Will replacing the battery fix this issue? My previous ASUS didn't have this issue but I think when I bought it, it was a bit more powerful than the current one, though both are supposedly gaming laptops. Any suggestions?
