    Power cables are universal and "two a penny", power supplies are slightly different.

    The likes of Maplin do generic SMPSU's for laptops, but whether they have the right plug for your laptop is another matter.
    Remember kids, it's the volts that jolt and the mills that kill.
  • Yep, try maplins first for a mains lead, bog standard things.

    Is it a kettle lead, figure of 8 or a cloverleaf that you require?
