    My Ul80Vt's AC Adapter seems to have died. It just has a blinking green light whenever it's plugged in, even if not plugged into the laptop. Is it dead? And if it is, how should I go about getting a replacement?

    Any AC adapter that is able to output 19v at 3.42A or above (65w) and have the same connector will work. I'd recommend a power rating that's slightly higher than 3.42A.

    Or you can just order a replacement Asus adapter from one of the online stores. Make sure to get one that is 65w or greater.

    try leaving it unplugged for about a day or 2 if you can and then try again. Hope that helps
