    Laptop will no longer charge. Was doing it by moving the charger around. Something wrong with port as charger is fine as it's new was working for a good while. Anyone know if it's an expensive fix. Probably needs opening up lose wire or something like that.

    Depends on the model, some have DC port soldered to motherboard, others have a cable that plugs in. Either way, it will need a good bit of opening. Depending where you go, might cost up to €100. Whats the model?

    Wired: 50 up.
    Soldered: 100 up and it will usually fail again much sooner than from factory
