In order for the AC adapter to work the battery must be in good condition, why? Because the system runs of battery the AC adapter just keeps the battery charged up while in use, if the battery is open or defective the computer will not run on just the AC adapter.

Batteries only have a useful life and once it is used up they have to be replaced.

If you can get on the laptop and work without any problems using your AC Adapter and Power Cord then the battery is definitely dead and needs to be replaced.

If you have problems using your computer using the AC Adapter and Power Cord then either your Power Cord is Bad or the DC Power Jack where the power cord plugs into the computer is bad. If either of these two is bad they will not charge a Good Battery.

Check your DC Power Jack which is where the power cord plugs into the computer is bad. Take an ink pen and push the tip inside the jack and see if the little pin wiggles, if so the jack is bad. You'll have to take the laptop apart to fix it. Most times it is soldered onto the motherboard, so you will have to desolder the old and solder a new one.

Replace it, cheaper in the long run.

Unplug the computer and take out the battery.
Hold the power button for ten seconds.
Leave the battery out and plug in the power cord.
Press the power button.
If the computer turns on, put the battery and everything should now work.
This has solved every "laptop not turning on problem" for me and my friends.

Hello,

Is your ac adapter or charger detected?

If YES, and it doesn't charge the battery, but it turns ON the laptop it means that the battery is the one not holding a charge.

If NO. Try to change the power cord that goes to the wall (that part is detachable) with good known power cord. If it does the same then definitely there's a problem with the ac adapter.

If the computer powers ON, both ac adapter and battery are detected but no display, then the problem is the system board.

Hope it works.

You have a bad DC connector, which came loose from the system board:

Problem symptoms:

1. Laptop randomly shuts down without any warning.
2. Power LED and battery charge LED start flickering when you wiggle the power cord or the AC adapter tip on the back or your laptop.
3. The battery will not get charged.
4. When you plug AC adapter, the laptop appears to be dead and there is no LED activity at all (DC-IN jack on the system board is broken).

Here is a tutorial on how to fix a DC connector problem. You may want to have a tech fix it.

hello

shut down computer - unplug power cord from laptop - remove the battery from laptop - plug Ac adapter into computer and Ac outlet (wall)
turn on computer
if computer does not turn on, replace the AC adapter and cord - then place battery back into computer
plug in new Ac adapter and cord - recharge battery - if orange light stays on after 4-6 hours of charging battery, you need new battery as well - replace battery, charge it up and it should be fine

if you have attempted these steps before and no change occurs, then you may have issue with power connection in computer - locate a service centre to replace power connection on computer

Hi,
you can try the following:

• Remove the battery and connect just the AC adapter and try to boot up. If it works then install the battery, if not
• Remove the battery and AC and press the Power button for 30 sec
• Under the netbook, ( when turned upside down) on the right-side near the windows key sticker you will see small hole use a pin to press this button. This will reset your HW.

First 2 solutions worked for me. I had issue with my battery calibration. After leaving it 24h on the AC all back to normal.
Hope it helps

Try to remove your battery and plug in your AC adapter
If its working:
You need to replace your battery
If its not working:
Try to check if the LED indicator is lit

If the LED indicator is not lighted. Replace your AC adapter

Thanks. Cheers!
