My MacBook (2007 blackbook)
suddenly can't run without the AC adaptor. The battery says it's fully charged (both the lights on the battery an the readout on my desktop) but when I unplug it, it just dies.

Any idea what the problem could be?

I've reset the PRAM, nothing!

Looks like it may have fixed itself. I let it sit for an hour or so and now I can bring it off the AC adaptor without it killing out on me.

It did this like 9 times in a row, now it seems fine, weird!

glad its fine, ive seen alot of macbooks on ebay that wont charge the battery or wont run when the a/c adapter is unplugged, hopefully your case wont resurface again.
