Problem with unrecognized AC adapter/unable to recharge batteries update BIOS
Hi,
I have a problem with the my Inspiron 8600 not recognizing my AC adapter. That causes a lot of problems such as 1) not being able to charge my batteriers and 2) not being able to update my bios.
Is there anything I can do to either 1) force a bios update (it checks to see that the AC adapater is plugged in) 2) Download some freaky driver that will allow it to recognize the thing
For the record the AC adapter is a replacement adapter, and did not come with my machine originally. It was shipped by Dell as a replacement when the original gave out.
