Except my problem was internal. you see with my old compaq 915 you had to turn and jiggle the cord to get it to stay in powered A/C adapter mode. Eventually it just quit. I tried to tell Staples to fix the mother board, it was the board making the problems not the cord. "No no." they thought to themselves, as they gave me my umpteenth ac adapter. Anything to make the customer who knows more then you do apparently go away. Also after reading your story I'm glad now I bought a toshiba and not a dell.
