The solution to your problem lies in one of the following three areas:

1.) Your dell inspiron m5030 charger is faulty and is therefore not able to pass power to your laptops battery.

2.) The charging connector on the laptop has come loose from the contacts. Therefore a bad connection.

3.) Your battery is faulty.

I think possibility 2 is the most likely, although you will have to test possibility 3 by removing the battery and plugging in your charger and seeing if the laptop powers on.If it does power on then that rules out possibility 1 and 2 leaving a faulty battery.

This is a common problem. It may be that the charger is dammaged. these Dell chargers have a micro thin communication cable in them that tell the charger to charge the battery. this micro thin cable can often break. Its use it to prevent the laptop battery from over charging, but if it breaks or becomed broken inside tha charger cable, then the laptop simply won't get the charge signal and the battery won't charge. If this is the case, then you will need to replace the charger with another Dell charger compatible with your laptop

Remove the PC labtop battery then re insert it again.
If still not charging check the charger connector if its connected as well.
If there was no problem in the charger connector,Check the charger itself.
These all what you need to check only,no problem in your labtop.
If still not charging means one of these :
1- The BATTERY may needs to be changed .
or
2- The charger may needs to be changed.

Switch ON the PC, boot the PC in 'Safe Mode' by continuously tapping F8 button after you switch On.

Let windows boot in Safe Mode and log in to windows.

Go to 'Start'--->Programs--->Accessories--->System Tools--->System Restore

Here you will have to check "Restore computer to an earlier time' and click Next
Now you will find one Month Calendar window with Dates below, go to the previous month by clicking the '<' sign in the upper left hand corner of the Month Calendar and select any date that you see in Bold.


The detail of that particular date should show "System Checkpoint" and time on the right hand side box. Select that date.

Now, Click on Next and System Restore will start and windows will take a reboot.

Just try this and leave a feedback for next steps.

My N5010 dell laptop battery won't charge anymore. Could I just need a new battery, or charger, or could there be something else going on internally that I need to know about? For the most part, I

If your laptop is still under warranty, contact dell and they should be able to fix it free of charge, The same thing happened to my laptop a few years ago and fortunately, it is still under warranty, The fault is the charger itself which dell replaced free of charge.

My dell inspiron won't charge if the OS is awake/on but DOES charge when it's off/asleep. this is a new problem.

This appears to be a common problem. Sounds like the current is not being shared while in use. If you know the battery to be good, I'd check the output voltage of the charger 1st and see it is putting out the right voltage. The chargers for the Mini series are weird, so may be worthwhile borrowing another charger to eliminate it from the problems.

After that... you may need to get the laptop checked by Dell
