Overheating Power Down - Toshiba Satellite P200 Series User Manual

Power
When the computer is not plugged into an AC outlet, the battery pack is the
primary power source. However, your computer has a number of other
power resources, including an intelligent power supply and Real Time Clock
battery. These resources are interrelated and any one could affect apparent
power problems. This section provides check lists for AC power and the
battery. If you cannot resolve a problem after following them, the cause
could lie with another power resource. In such cases you should contact
your dealer.
