    Does the Clevo N950KP6 use the same power adapter as the P770ZM-G?

    I have 2 of the 230 (220?) watt power adapters from the P770ZM-G that was stolen from me. Will they work with the Clevo N950KP6?

    No, that model uses the regular barrel type connector.

    Only the high-end P-series models (P750xx, P775xx, P870xx) use the 4-pin connector currently. Just about everything else uses the smaller barrel AFAIK.

    5.5mmx2.5mm 19v barrel with centre positive pin if you want to do a more general search.

    No thanks. In fact, because of jerks elsewhere online, I am going to be cutting off a lot of contact online. People do not care that they are victimizing a victim by their posts and attacks. I had numerous times where people have been pulling that type of BS and it has gotten so bad that I do not care to be online. I have no idea if I will even bother to do so again. To be honest, part of me died when our home was burglarized and I have been barely holding things together.

    I am sorry to hear about that, generally I hope the reaction has been supportive on here.

    Yes, they have. I have been doing IT work since 1990. The negativity, the comments by others and lack of resources to replace my laptop has made it so I no longer find any enjoyment with computers anymore. I used to live and breath computers. Some had said that my computer was my "emotional support" animal.

    Life sucks, I lost all direction to my life and am in a non-stop cycle.

    I started with an Apple IIe in December 1983. When we moved to Albuquerque, NM from NoVA in August 1984, I had an Apple IIc waiting in my room for me. In 1990, a friend gave me a game (B-17 Flying Fortress) for my birthday. I tried to give it back to him because my Compaq luggable couldn't run it. His response was to say "Well, why don't you build one?" I said I couldn't because I didn't know how. The friend took me aside and said he would show me how. I built a 286-12 with 4mb of SIPP RAM. The rest was history.

    In all, I have built about 2500 desktop systems either for myself, friends or customers over the years - if anything, that is a considerably low number over what I actually have done. Asus and their customer service is what put me into the "Clevo" buyers group and I haven't looked back.
