My Dell Laptop was working fine in 220V country, when i moved and try to use it in US (110V) the charger LED is ON but once i plug it in the laptop it goes off and the laptop is not working. i even tried to us a Transformer from 110V Input to 220V output but still not working, the Dell charger shows it support input 110V-240V but i wonder why this is happening. btw: the same scenario occured in my JVC digital camera!!!

So two different devices, each with their own charger, don't work in different power outlets in different rooms? How about if you plug a light into the same outlet. Does the light work? Does it dim when you plug the charger into the laptop? If so you have a bad electrical system, either a loose wire or bad outlet.

SOURCE: Dell laptop charger

Unfortunately there is no way of fixing the charger, you will have to get a new one. The cheapest place to get chargers (AC adapters) is on Ebay. This is where I get all chargers for my shop. They have many vendors that just sell chargers, and looks like one for the Insp 6400 runs about $20.

SOURCE: Charging problem

It's definitely the motherboard based on the symptoms. You can send it to their out of warranty depot. Or you can purchase the motherboard from their spare parts sales dept, then look for a local tech who can install it for you.

SOURCE: view laptop on tv

Most laptops have a combination of buttons you have to press on the keyboard to get it to output on the monitor output. Try pressing the FUNCTION KEY or FUNC/FN key usually found in the bottom left hand side of the keyboard. Keep that button held down while press one of the number keys. Usually the number key will have a picture of a TV screen on it. Might be number 8 or 9. Press both keys at the same time a you can switch between laptop screen, Sony LCD or you can have both..

sounds like a bad charger, try taking out the battery and plug in the charger to the laptop and see if it will boot if it does it might be a bad battery

SOURCE: No audio output to tv on my dell 1545

That, & most, earphone sockets, simply doesn't have enough "Current" or signal voltage to drive your TV set's audio in Amplifier. You need to get a Pre-Amp, to amplify the signal, up to a level that can be used by the TV. So you need to purchase, or build from a kit, a small stereo pre-amp and insert it between your laptop & TV audio In.

Will my 240v charger work on 110v

Can't say for certain, but there are specific 110V and 220V versions of DCB101.
None are labelled 90-220VAC as would be normal for universal voltage equipment.
If you operate 110V equipment on 220V then you will most likely damage it with overvoltage.
If you operate 220V equipment on 110V then you will most likely damage it in over current or have it simply not work.

It is possible that the charger is universal, just not labelled as such.
Send DeWalt an email.

This is usually down to the cable and fuse rather than the device. You will need to buy the right power cables/power adaptor to have the device work in that country

A friend from US gave me hp netbook-1103135- is it 110 or 220v please advise thanks

It most likely has a 110V plug on the power supply; however, all you have to do is buy the appropriate 220v cable for the power supply for your country, and it should work fine on 220V.
External power supplies are designed to use either 110v or 220v -- all you have to do is change the cable or use an adapter and you're good to go.

Toshiba Laptop not charging

So confusing...Laptop AC Adapter nowadays has AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE, meaning it doesn't matter if it is 110v or 220v. Maybe you've got a FAULTY BATTERY. Remove the battery and plug in your AC Adapter to outlet and to your laptop and try to power-on.

Charger not recognized

Folks.
The issue with most of the Dell charger issues rekated to a new charger not being able to charge the battery is the fact that Dell has a screwy proprietary circuit design in their laptops and chargers.
It seems that the Dell laptops are designed so
only Dell chargers will work. While other
brands of chargers will power the laptop when plugged in,
they will not charge the battery.
They do this so they have a monopoly on their chargers and thus can charge a frickin' fortune for their, Dell chargers.
Want them to change this? don't buy Dell products for a while. If enough people ban them, they would change this **** overnight!

Monitor Screen goes black seconds after turn on-

I ended up fixing my problem, but I'm not sure what the solution is. I had some faulty electrical equipment that I was using to power the monitor (220V to 110V converter and a bad power strip) and I got rid of them. I was using the converter because I moved to Israel and I thought I needed to feed the monitor only 110V, but I now realize that the power cord for the monitor has a built-in converter that accepts 220V input. Now the monitor is plugged directly into the wall and is working fine. Try using a different power source (maybe the wiring or plug you're using is faulty). Good Luck!
