Make a connector? Is it proprietary, or can you just buy one from radio shack?

I amend my previous statement by saying:

Probably not the only solution, but it's a start. But I'm NOT wont to continue to use a laptop with any sort of power issue. You're about to travel down a road of quickly diminishing returns, e.g, worn out batteries. It could more cost effective in the long run to have the DC Jack professionally repaired or replace the board.
