USB Power Adapter

[kage]

I know that USB is able to take power from your computer, but is it possible for it to provide power to your computer?

This would be especially helpful to prevent me from spending tons of money to fix what I think is broken in my laptop.

If you mean powering your computer/charging the lappy through USB, then no, it's not possible.

Okay, I thought that'd be the case. Any idea how much it costs to get the pin fixed where the AC adapter plugs into the laptop?

Could you post a couple of pics of your problem?

if you know how to use a soldering iron, you can generally do it yourself - bear in mind youll lose any warranty and may screw it up

if you send it away theyll charge you for a new mobo
