no problem and thanks for taking a shot. probably not worth troubleshooting it any further anyway because now that i think of it, there’s also a slight possibility that it has taken damage from being carried in a backbag in cold weathers as low as -20 C, and then immediately opened up for use. that would explain why the trackpad occasionally stops working and why the battery life went from 6 hours to 2 in just 3 years. not exactly how you should handle laptops but that’s what it had to do and that’s why i bought used

The cold probably is what killed the battery. For the touch pad, maybe? I’d blame the travel too.
