    Hi
    Earier my laptop used to get baked, Really hot ( could literarly cook some eggs on it ) So i opened it up and cleant a lot of dust out. It started running very smooth. After a while power adapter pin point starts getting lose and then stops working. So I cut open the wire and replaced with a new pin point. Well it worked for 2 days and got spoilt again. So i thought the brick was faulty and a ordered a new one, Turned out to be a 90w instead of 120 and was 2 pin charger from brick to pinpoint. Anyway it worked for a good 24 hours and now again its spoilt. What can I do? should i order another brick of 120w? The light comes on, on the brick but laptop does not charge. Help! What can i do?
