Ac Adapter Error Dell Laptop

Thank you kirkd for the nice inputs.

Ac adapter error dell laptop. If i connect the old ac adapter with my new laptop my system shows following warning message at startup. The ac power adapter type cannot be determined. For optimal performance use the ac adapter that came with the dell laptop pc. Call dell they ll first send a replacement adapter.

For the last weeks i tried followed all the troubleshooting guides uninstall reinstall drivers tried friend s same model charger running dell diagnostics all windows program set to stock settings. If the issue is with your computer or a laptop you should try using reimage plus which can scan the repositories and replace corrupt and missing files. If that doesn t solve the problem the dc power jack or mainboard needs replacement will be covered under warranty as long as the cause isn t accidental damage such as from a drop or bump. The ac adapter type is less than 130w or cannot be determined.

The ac adapter might heat up. But it causes one slight problem. The ac power adapter type cannot be determined. Your system will operate slower and the battery will not charge.

Please check ac adapter connect properly remove ac adapter and plug in it again thanks. The ac adapter type cannot be determined. I have an xps m1330. Due to logistics reasons i have no way to take my adapter to another computer to check out.

It is made in china. Dell laptop pcs may use either a 65w 90w 130w 180w or 240w ac adapter. This will prevent optimal system performance. I just fixed this issue last night with my inspiron 15 7559 with the original 130w adapter about the same age as yours.

Please connect a dell 180w ac adapter or higher for best system operation. Pa 21 family 65w p n. This is a common problem i see lots of posts the problem source is the dell ac adapter. Using dell after warranty service replaced the mother board twice replaced the battery twice replaced the ac adapter twice not.

The ac adapter s wattage information is printed on the bottom of the ac adapter. Ac adapter not powering on the computer or charging the battery ac adapter damage system battery shows plugged in not charging when you hover over the battery icon.
