  • Yeah, hmmm, most laptops have an input of between 7 and 14 volts. Those extra 40 some volts were probably a bad idea. I'm guessing that the power converter inside that laptop is crying right about now.
  • Take it into a repair shop -- the system might be dead, the HDD could could be dead, or maybe just a cable or connector is damaged. I am sort of surprised that a 48V system would have a connector that could accidentally be plugged into a laptop. Hope this story has a happy ending... I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
  • You friend something on your laptop. If you take it to a repair shop that does board level repair they might be able to help you out. But that's a lot of juice to put into a laptop. At the very least you can get an external hard drive caddy and hopefully get your data.
