From: BillW50 on 16 Apr 2010 13:48 My niece's Dell 610 laptop power adapter was chewed up by her dog. She asked me if I had a spare one she can borrow. Which means I'll never see it ever again. lol But if the center pin is positive, I have some generic ones that should work without modification (19v, 3.5A). So does anybody know for sure?

Nope, I don't have the part number as I don't have the laptop or the power adapter. -- Bill Gateway MX6124 ('06 era) 1 of 3 - Windows XP SP2
