    I have an acer 4620z notebook that the power jack failed twice when it was
    under warranty and I had acer fix it. Now the warranty has expired and It has failed again, so I am on my own. I have taken it apart and I want to
    replace it as shown in this video with a radio shack jack

    my question is does any one know where on the mother board I solder the
    positive wire and where do I solder the negative wire
