sorry for the very late reply.
it took me some time to understand where you wanted me to look on the boot menu....
but i did find it.
it shows the ac power is 65W.
i tried updating bios but it gave me an error:
"Cann't flash to the same Bios version. Press OK to exit. "
yes it actually says "Cann't"
the service tag of the laptop is: <ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy>
