Solve : no power to laptop?

1.	Solve : no power to laptop?
Answer» toshiba satellite laptop, lost cord, battery dead, went to wal-mart to purchase new adaptor but when they plug it up still no power. power switch light comes on for a SECOND then goes off. is it a short or something?Have you TRIED taking it to a repair shop first? We won't know what happen to that laptop without more information first hand. Its also knowing if the hardware laptop is worth reviving on your part.When you say battery dead --is it possible that it can be RECHARGED or is it not able to be recharged. What happens if you (with your new ADAPTER plugged in) don't turn the laptop on but only permit a CHARGING function on the battery. Obviously with the "dead" battery in it's place. truenorthGeneric charger...they rarely work on laptops.
