Why is my Toshiba laptop shutting off randomly?

The battery in it was fried so I have to keep it plugged in. It's only 2-3 years old, but it's going down hill fast. I don't need to defragment it, I know I don't have a virus, and it isn't overheating at all- (It never even gets warm)

I've only had one other laptop in my whole life and it lasted me 6 years (and I still have it and it works fine, but needs a new battery and charger) Why is this one going to crap so early? I don't play games on it, or download anything, and I keep it up to date on updates. I use it for FB, school and writing stories. Any ideas?

    Well, the charger charges the battery, not the computer, so if the battery is fried, get a new battery. Have an expert do it at best buy. Charger- battery.- computer. Easy fix.
