i bought it as an ex display, it had no charger but i had a universal charger of my own which is samsung compatable and you and change the voltage as recuired, so i got the laptop cheap and went away happy. not so happy now though. i bought the charger last week for a hp laptop i have and it never got that hot whailst i used it on the hp, but an hour of using it on the samsung it is boiling hot. do you think it may just have devoloped a fault. do you no where i can get an original samsung charger from and not just a replica? sorry for so many questions.
