Hi, I have searched the forum and tried some of the ideas I already found. I will try to be as thorough here as I can.
I have a Dell Inspiron 1200 which I have had about a year. I have replaced the power cord once about 6 months ago and have had no other problems.
A couple of days ago it started telling me that the battery was critically low and then it would go into hibernation. When I turned it back on I would get a few minutes use then it would hibernate again on its own.
Now it will not turn on at all.
I have pulled and looked at the battery which does not have an indicator button. I have changed outlets and tried various combinations of plugging it in, with and without an extension cord and a surge protector or any adaptor on the plug. The light on the power supply is lit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
