1454578 2018-11-04 06:49:00 I used to own a dell before and I found that if the battery is not charging it means you have to buy new batteries for it. Are the batteries detachable? rgutz (17641)
1454579 2018-11-14 08:12:00 I can get around this by swapping the power adapters to force them to charge.


Sure , you can do that ,but if you're not a professional, i don't recommend this, you'd better buy a new laptop.

What's the issue with swapping the adaptors?

If that works for you. :-)
It does indicate a definite hardware fault though .

1454582 2018-11-15 08:45:00 I had the same problem. Couldn't find a solution, so I just had to change the battery sadly :( Noah32 (17646)
1454583 2018-11-15 21:11:00 Jump into the diagnostics - F12 on POST and you'll get info re battery health, charger wattage etc etc. Should give you enough info to figure out where the issues are. wratterus (105)
