After called dell and explaining the situation they would dispatch a tech with new motherboard and replace it.
Ac power adaptor type cannot be determined dell laptop.
The battery may not charge.
The ac power adapter type cannot be determined if the issue is with your computer or a laptop you should try using restoro which can scan the repositories and replace corrupt and missing files.
For the last two weeks every time i start my dell inspiron e1705 while using the power supply i am greeted with the following message.
Ac power adapter cannot be determined on my dell inspiron 5559 laptop i just recently updated it to the latest version of windows.
The ac power adapter wattage and type cannot be determined.
Ac adapter power supply is a 45w 19 5v 2 31a dell power supply.
Please connect a dell 90w ac adapter or higher for best system operation.
It works fine and is not damaged lite is lit on the brick and proper voltage out verified by using a vom.
I came back a few hours later and saw that my laptop wasn t charging but i thought it was just some glitch.
Your system will operate slower and the battery will not charge.
Getting this message when booting up alert.
But eventually the power jack in the back of the laptop will wear out or it s solder joints become loose and i d get the dreaded ac power adapter type cannot be determined message.
This works in most cases where the issue is originated due to a system corruption.
