Causes:

1. Overheat

Most cases this is caused by a over heat where the system fan gets blocked or there is not enought air flow, this can damage the system cpu.

Other known causes

AC/ adapter needs to be replaced some case were found that the ac adapter would be the cause as well it would be something to have checked out.

Now if the system shuts off without the ac adapter and its running on the battery as well you might want to look at the overheat issue.

Just over the past few days my netbook only been working on adapter even though battery been fully charged and showing fully charged

Sounds like the battery is probably faulty. If it is more than 6 months old that is the most likely cause, especially if you tend to use it plugged in a lot or plug it in for short periods.
Replacement batteries are readily available

Battery meter is low, even though computer is always plugged in

Hi, I recommend you to try refreshing your battery by doing this step for 3 -5 times 1.Make a fully charge it take around 10 Hours. 2.Unplug your adapter and use the battery until it fully finish.Off by itself. 3.Repeat step1-2 for 3-5 times and see it again

Acer 7720 will turn on and work for about 5 mins and shut down

In most cases I have found that this problem stems from a bad charger not delivering the proper amount of voltage. Therefore the battery doesn't ever really get a full charge even though the power indicator may say it does. I would get a multi-meter and check the voltage at the charger tip and see if the power is fluctuating. Be careful regardless, a bad power unit may spike and terminate your motherboard.

Won't turn on.

Try starting it up without the battery. Batteries can pickup a dead short which will cause a laptop not to start even though they show a full charge.

Acer Travelmate 270 - battery problem?

IT sounds like your laptop or powersupply/charger is at fault. Try to use a different charger, and if possible use your battery in a different computer. That way you can narrow down where the problem is. It might ba a faulty connection where the charger is connected to your computer. To check this out, try running the computer on AC without the battery installed. If it suddenly shuts off it's a problem with your powersupply or possibly the connection plug in the cimputer.
