    Yay!!! My All Powerful is no longer all powerless! I am shocked (pun intended) too, delivery times to this base really have improved! I was not expecting neither my replacement brick or the three extras I ordered to get in until next week, at the earliest!

    Of course the battery was totally dead, and on boot up, the OS did not even recognized it. But thanks to the helpful folks here, I was able to do the reset, after which the battery was detected and is now charging.

    I can put the Toshiba away finally, after transfering updated files!!

    Nice, glad you got it working.

    How much did you pay for the extra power bricks?

    I paid $119 each! Expensive, but in my situation worth it to ensure I can continue to use my Alienware in the event of another brick going bad.
