WillTheBum Official dude I tried unplugging it a bunch of time and it’s hard to remove it, I removed it but then when I tried to plug it back in but unfortunately it exploded in the middle of the wire, it isn’t really working now. I really need help I’m panicking 😭😭
@@Packxen I did restart the laptop (it didn't work) and i have no phone only a tablet and a school computer and the tablet would connect to the internet and my mom is refusing to fix it so Im stuck in a situation :,D
Uchiha Itachi Nope, I've had it for almost two years. I suspect that, because of the cold climate in my country, the battery has become defect. I was stupid enough to leave it close to an open window for an entire night. So I'm taking it to a service center.
My problem is around the 0:46 mark. The charger is plugged in, but i have to move the tip to the right spot, in order for it to work. What should I do?
Most of these tips are incredibly obvious for anyone who has so much as touched a computer. Another thing, Rebooting your computer after updating drivers is a myth and not necessary. I really expect more from a tech channel
how am I suppose to check the battery if 95% of laptops nowadays are made with a non removable battery ? it's like people haven't realized yet that we're in 21st century, 2018
A fast way to check the power unit is to use a volt meter at the end of the cable. Take car to not short the connector with the probes. There should be a label on the power supply indicating the voltage it puts out. The best check is to try a new power supply with new cables. If this does not fix it then obviously the fault is in the laptop. I found there were times when the connector inside of the laptop was not making contact to the circuit board. With the user often putting stress on the connector they made the solder connections between the connector pins and the circuit board to be broken. The fix is to take the laptop apart and re-solder the connections. In most laptops the solder connections are accessible, but the circuit board may have to be removed. Very time consuming. If you take your laptop for service, make sure the place you take it to can do proper soldering in the circuit board, and their tech people are qualified. Many of these places are not very good and they don't employ they level of people who can actually do repairs on devices other than swapping out circuit boards and not be sincere to the customers.
NOTE TO EVERYBODY: This is a very strange method, but it works efficiently. So to those laptops that aren’t dead, go to device manager, click on Batteries, disable the battery drivers, then reenable them. Thus, it will work. This works because it stops the battery and runs on the adapter. After that, it reconnects to the battery and charges it again.
i did that and it doesnt solve the problem. My adaptor is alive. I checked the voltage and the current and surprisingly, there're still voltages and currents running through it. But whenever i plugged it in to my laptop, nothing happened. pls help. ( i have two laptops which uses the same type of adaptor. I tested this adaptor with the both laptops. it turns out that both arent charging. As i said before, there're still voltages and currents in there but somehow it doesnt charge my laptop.)

Not a single reference to the DC jack possibly just in need of a replacement, sure it's a bit tricky but it's usually a doable task even if it can take a long time unscrewing everything etc and putting it back.
for everyone whose laptops not charging simply remove the battery from the laptop then charge it so you can turn on the device..then see if the laptops turning on and if it does remove the charging put the battery back and try turning it on even after that if it doesn't charge uninstall drivers and restart it..this is work for sure, I did it on my Lenovo S340 by myself with my brother.
