Check the BIOS setup - F2 at powerup. If the AC adapter is listed as "unknown", either the adapter, the power jack, mainboard or power board, depending on the system is faulty. In-warranty, call Dell. Out of warranty, try a new Dell AC adapter first - if it too isn't recognized, the system needs an internal repair.

If the system does sense the adapter but the battery won't charge, the next step is to try a new battery. if that doesn't solve the problem, the mainboard needs replacement.
