Checking the ac power adapter
You are here because the computer fails only when the ac power adapter is used.
• If the power problem occurs only when the docking station or the port replicator is used, replace the
docking station or the port replicator.

To check the ac power adapter, do the following:
1. Unplug the ac power adapter cable from the computer.
