The battery has probably died. You will not be able to find a new genuine Dell battery on your old model, so use it as is until you can buy a new laptop. Batteries must come from Dell or a trusted Dell parts provider. Do not buy from any marketplace like Ebay or Amazon or any private seller--too many scams. See this-

In my case

I did put another battery, laptop was working but still not charging.

So I gather problem is not with battery.

Go into Setup (F2 at powerup).  Is the AC adapter listed with its power rating, or does it show " unknown" or "not connected"?
