Well Fuck Guys.....
The new Dell XPS 17 died in virtually the same manner! Just shipped it back... I swear it wasn't anything I did....there's gotta be some hardware or software problem in those new machines. It worked fine for half-a day as I configured it and loaded software then plugged it into my dock and finished working with it the full next day then.. this morning early it started discharging and would recognize any charger including the one it shipped with... I fiddled around and it seemed to come back and charged up to 100% (on my dock at the lower wattage rate)... and then it went into a death spiral late morning.... I called them....got a RMA and shipped the fucker!
Old XPS 15 is working fine as it was (but it's shit for bluetooth keyboard/mouse so I'm back wired).....dunno what's next but I'm damn tired and done with this!
