My Dell Inspiron N5030 is about 9 months old. It works fine when it is plugged in, but once unplugged, if you jostle it around it powers off. It's almost as if somehow the battery connection is interrupted but I have no idea how to see if this is the problem or what to do to fix it. I don't want to buy a new battery if the problem is where it connects into the actual laptop.
Run it without the battery just mains if runs ok it a faulty battery

If you're covered, Dell can replace the power converter on the motherboard for you. Yes, I have experience with this and yes, that should fix it.

Just call Dell, don't take it back to Best Buy or anything (that's where I got my Inspiron 1565). They will put you through a couple troubleshooting items and decide whether it's the AC adapter went bad or if they have to replace your motherboard. It's all free since they have a 1yr hardware warranty.

If we are talking about the BIOS password (the password that come out before Windows loads up) you need to contact Dell Technical Support. They will need to verify your ownership of the laptop and if you are able to do so, they will provide you with a generic password to unlock the BIOS.
You need to get the local technical support number from the Dell support website (support.dell.com)
