Alright i admit it... I dropped my laptop. It ran completely fine under battery power but the battery failed to charge. I suspected internal damage. No longer covered under warranty, I took my chance and disassembled to see if I could figure out the problem. One of the wires connected to the power jack (not soldered onto the motherboard) was pinched almost completely off. I fixed that but something is still wrong. When I plug it in, the critical battery light blinks every 5-6 secs, but all other LEDs remain off. Nothing else happens. Zero. Nada. Zilch. All connections appear fine, cables are fine, all other parts appear fracture-free. I'm stuck. Does anybody have any idea what I should be looking for?
Running a Toshiba Satellite A200 btw. Thanks!
