HELP: (9100/XPS + MR9800) Power cable troubleshooting

Power cable troubleshooting

I have some power type failure during the boot phase. The XPS Bios
sometimes isn’t able to “understand” the 200w power transformer connected
to main plug reporting the failure and lowering the system clock.

Someone had the same failure? (9100/XPS with Radeon 9800)
How can I check or fix the failure? Any suggestion..

Thank you in advance

This could be fixed if you clean the part that plugs into the computer.
There could be some dust/debris stuck in there thats preventing it from making good contact.
If that doesnt work...then I'd guess you're gonna haveta buy a new one

Hello

I don't like very much the idea to change and buy a new power adapter.
Somebody already had my trouble and tryed to solve it? I opened the power
supply all cables looks good...
