Hello! I'm an old guy, and so is pretty much everything I own. Anyway I have an old Inspiron 6420 laptop and I need an Inspiron 6420 laptop I need to get a replacement charging cord. I order one on Amazon that was supposed to work but it has a flat little USB connector at the end of the charging cord. The one on the back of my laptop is round, and it's got some kind of pin connectors (I think two or three) that the charging cord plug end must have.
I know it's an old laptop, but I'm disabled and my wife and I are seniors on a very fixed/tight income, so getting a new laptop is out of the question. I need my laptop going because there's important information on it and the battery is dead.
Anyone here got any suggestions on where to get a new ac charging cord - that is the correct one? When you look online, none of the charging cords advertised give you a look INSIDE of the round charging cord connector (which I believe is 2 or 3 pins). Does anyone here have an old Inspiron laptop like mine, that could post a picture of the inside of the round plug (that goes into the back of the laptop).
Thanks in advance to all who offer help and advice!!!
