Just figured out tonight why my wireless signal is piss now and again. i was downloading a torrent and my download speed was 617k, soon as i but the charger in it went down to 13k, i repeated this test about 6 times and it consistantly dropped from 617 to 13 in about 3 seconds.
i reckon its time for a new charger.
 
All switched mode I think on the mainboard nowadays, more efficient and less heat.

I guess that it's some odd interaction with the onboard supplies.

Maybe, it's a while since I bothered going down to case splitting (such a pain in the ass)! Borderline though on whether SM on the MB would be an issue (if it has one). Screen invertor bumps voltage up and a more likely candidate IMHO...
