Having problems with your Toshiba Qosmio G25-AV513 Notebook ?

The power adapter on the back of my qosmio g35 is loose i.e. it wiggles back and forth. in order to get the power supply to work i have to "anchor" the power adapter to one side or the other else i get no power. is it possible to tighten or replace the power adapater in the back of the laptop so it no longer moves back and forth?

Answers :

Hi,
If the pin inside the adapter is loose then at some point you are going to have take the laptop in for repair as it will shortly fail and snap.
Unfortunately you can't tighten them up but you can have a new adapter soldered onto the motherboard.
If you take the laptop to a reputable repair store they will no doubt do the job for you, don't however let them fob you off by saying that you will need a new motherboard as these day's it's not the case.

Regards.
