I have a used Compaq 12XL300B laptop. After 6 months with a used
battery off ebay, the laptop would not power up with the battery, only
AC. I bought a used voltage convertor (this is what the Compaq tech
suggested might be the problem), and bought a new (non-Compaq)
battery. Now I get a slow flashing battery charging light, and no
running off the battery. Compaq wants me to take the laptop to a
service center. Is there a way I can test the voltage convertor? I've
swapped it out already, and don't want to waste time with a service
center.
Thanks
