Still contact the laptop warranty people and, although it expired a few days back, argue that you would expect it to work for considerably longer than a year. I have a 7 year old laptop that works just as well as it did the day I bought it. Come up with other examples of technology you have that's older than a year and see if they'll still accept it for repair.– KinnectusCommented Dec 15, 2015 at 5:34

1@BigChris: I called the customer service before posting it here. They were telling it is going to cost $179 to $279 + taxes and 90 days warrenty. I still can't decide spending almost $300 and getting only 90 days– SureshCommented Dec 15, 2015 at 14:09

1OK, not a problem. When you say you tried another charger, did you try a completely different charge (mains cable AND charger/PSU unit)? From your question, the charger unit has an LED that is also not lighting up? Does this do the same with the other charger you tried? Are they both tested working with a voltmeter - your title says it works, but your question body isn't clear - does it initially turn on and then off? Finally, have you tried wiggling the charger connector in the laptop to see if the on-board connector isn't faulty?– KinnectusCommented Dec 15, 2015 at 14:12

1Does your region use fused plugs? If so check to see if the plug fuse has blown.– BurgiCommented Dec 15, 2015 at 14:18

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
