Dell Inspiron 15 i5558: plugged in, not charging

I have a "Dell Inspiron 15 i5558-5718SLV Signature Edition Laptop", and when i plug in with the power adapter, the system comes with a message unknown adapter and during the boot, and the battery does not charge at all. the battery icon would have a message : "Plugged in, But not charging"....

I have tried with a new adapter, new battery, the issue still is there. What would think the problem could be ?

Thank You

If that doesn't solve the issue, the mainboard is bad.
