Hard to say without taking a voltmeter to the adapter.
You might have fried your charger, or you migt have fried part of the power system on your lappie's motherboard. I can't tell without looking at it, and I doubt anyone else can just from the information given.

Just to clear this up..how was it "accidentally" plugged in? Did you trip with the plug in your hand and miraculously "accidentally" jam the plug straight into an outlet right when lightening hit?
It probably burned the battery or charger up.. fried it..Time to take it to a shop and have em check it out. Gonna cost though.. Sorry bout that.. You might want to swap the battery or charger though..That might cut it. Go to a used electronics place. most towns have them.. look in the phone book.
Good luck.

I plugged my computer into a station that was running 230v power. It will no longer turn on of course. I would like to know what will need to be replaced to repair it. I was thinking it would be the whole power supply, am I correct?

My power supply stopped working after I tried to scan with my new color laser printer on. Both heavy power users. I checked and am sure the PSU is bad. I installed a new PSU and everything powers up but I can't get a picture. Tried resetting the BIOS.

You're reading Lightning struck near my house last night causing my accidentally plugged in laptop to spark at the place where it was plugged in. the laptop works but refuses to charge. Is this an internal problem or a problem with the power cord?
