If you have a multimeter, it'll be easy.
Plug the
Acer Aspire 7741z charger in, test the connector of the adapter with a multimeter, remember, you only need to measure the DC voltage of the adapter.
If the readings are close to the specification on it's label, then the charger is OK.
If you do not have a multimeter,
Turn the computer completely off and remove the battery,
then check out whether you can
power up the Notebook with AC power only (no battery installed).
If you can power up your laptop, then the battery is dead.
If you still cannot power up your laptop,the adapter defective and you need replace it.
