so i was playing LOTROnline right, and boom.. laptop shuts off.
no signs of life either. laptop will not turn back on and no lights come on. power supply light is on but blinking and making a clicking noise. usually i'd see a light on the led panel on the laptop when the power supply is plugged in, but nothing. so i called alienware.... just to see what they'd say... and some foreigner who talked fast and incoherent at times said that i needed to get a new video card... lol. so i hung up on him, because its OBVIOUSLY a POWER issue and nothing about the video card... i think that the laptop won't turn on because the power supply is done for. and while playing LOTR online, my laptop battery lost charge and when it was totally gone... shut off. anyways... thats' what i'm hoping. damn power supply costs $115... if anyone can find me a cheaper one... not ebay... unless new... then I would appreciate it. the model number is: 0405B20220 the output is 20V and 11A. Thanks guys. |
