T23 Will not power up or charge.

#1 Post by outsider » Sun Jul 03, 2005 8:13 am

I am currently abroad on business and am having troubles with my T23.

I plugged in my a/c adapter (2 prong) from N/A into international 220v with an adapter. Worked fine for a couple of days, then it died. I Purchased a new a/c adapter (3 prong) locally and that seemed to work fine... for about a day...

Now the notebook will only work off of the battery, but will not charge, I went back to IBM to test a/c adapter and it works fine.

Do I have to purchase an entirely new Mainboard or just one unit / piece for the motherboard?

If you're certain the AC is good you wil need the system board- power goes right into it.
