    Hello :)

    I tried a new AC adapter, still doesn't work. So I disassembled the laptop & removed the AC plug adapter from it. I am getting the 15V from the wires, so I know the AC adapter is working. Should I assume the MoBo is NG? Or is there a fix that someone has done?

    Thanks for any help!

    I couldn't test the AC adapters until I pulled the plug adapter from the case, but they both work. :( Maybe I can pick up a cheap PC & swap mobos.....

    Thanks
