At the beginning of this week my laptop started going really dark and then it stopped altogether, thought i was going to have to buy a new one when it came to it was the cable that you plug into the socket and the laptop that was flat, been to a Laptop Clinic down the road from me this morning and got one for £15 he did’nt have the same as mine so gave me a second hand one, he tested it and it was 99% fully charged when he tested mine it was 000, anyway i’m back on line now.

Thanks thinking about it i reckon my cable had been going for a while, as my laptop screen is really bright, it was cheap rang one of my daughters to tell her, and she payed £40 on Amazon for one:))))

The same happened to me. Couldn't understand why it was saying the battery was low when I had it plugged into the mains. When I looked at HP site for a new cable thye wanted £55. I wasn't going to pay that and found one for £10.

Lucky you Clarice, mine gave up a few weeks ago it just stopped and our computer guy had it all weekend only to be told it was the mother board grrrrrrrrrrrr, we were told it would be cheaper to go and get a new one which we did, but i still had to wait for all my details to be transfered on to new one, so here i am all happy again .....

Nice to see you here again. :o)))
Second hand for £15 sounds a good deal.
