terribleturner Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 We we're about to watch a dvd through my laptop and im having problems getting the power through it. The low battery sign started bleeping, so i go to plug it in. But after about 10 seconds it just died. Tried plugging it in and leaving to get a bit of power through it, but it just died again after a while. I checked my power supply and that has got power going through it. I've now just gone to plug it in and there's a small spark (slight burning smell) and the led on the back of the plug goes out. Any ideas what this is??

terribleturner Posted January 30, 2005 Author Share Posted January 30, 2005 I got one of our engineers to check the power supply with a mulit-meter (is that right?) and it seems fine. Im thinking something inside isn't happy. Looks like another phone call to Packard Bell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
