Re: Power Problem - Dell Inspiron 5160
Matt,
Thanks for reply. I am very detailed when I look at something so although what I said in the begining is right things have changed a little now. Currently the green lights flash when the battery is in and when it is out but I can not power the unit on at all. The AC/DC converter is cold so I conclude that there must be only enough power consumption to turn on the lights. It seems that power is getting distributed internally to the laptop since the lights are flashing, but the battery is not charging nor am I able to power up the unit at all. When the problem first occured the laptop ran fine until the battery totally lost its charge and then nothing at all. Then I found that the lights flashed green when I removed the battery. I removed and installed the battery several times with lights flashing without battery and no lights with battery. And now lights flash with and without battery but absloutely no battery change nor ability to power on the laptop.
I need any ideas that you have as I am confused.
Best regards,
Hal
