Inspiron 5100 AC adapter replacement...
Hi Everyone...Need some HELP here. My AC adapter for my Inspiron 5100 notebook has stopped working after 4 years of service. I was browsing the Dell website looking for a replacement for my AC adapter and quite confused by the information that is given on the website.
On the DELL website there is an AC adapter with the title "
90 WATT 3 Prong AC Adapter for Dell Inspiron 1100/2600/2650/5100" with the
Dell Part # 310-2993 and
Manufacture Part # 9R733. I look at the picture of the AC adapter and it's
NOT my AC adapter. I plug in the end part of the AC adapter into my notebook, but the shape of an upside down "
U" on the end part of it and
NOT circular as shown on the picture on the website.
I was able to find another AC adapter with the title "
90 WATT 3 Prong AC Adapter for Select Dell Inspiron NoteBooks" with the
Dell Part #310-1461 and
Manufacture Part #3K360. The picture matches the AC adapter that I am using. It doesn't list my Inspiron 5100, but other Inspiron notebooks.
Confuse?? :smileysad: I don't want to order something that doesn't match my AC adapter
Another question, is anyone using an UNIVERSAL AC ADAPTER for their Inspiron 5100??
If anyone can assist me, it will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a nice day! :smileyhappy:
- It looks like either of the ones you posted will work. You cannot always go by the picture that is shown on a web ad, they are usually just generic pictures of say an ac adapter.Compatible Part Numbers: EA10953-56, PA-9, 310-1461, 310-2993, 310-1093, 310-1650, ADP-90FB, 6G356, PA-1900-05D, 3K360, 9R733pcgeek11

For about $10 more you can get a universal one. http://www.topmicrousa.com/dell-inspiron-5100---ac-adapter-charger.html
