Have a Dell Inspiron 1150 notebook. some issue with the power adaptor.
It is beeping and and the Green led is flashing. I know how to test
everything inside the adaptor however problem is getting it apart.
Can't see any screws, and don't seem to be any clips on the sides.
Anyone know how to take it apart to see what the problem is with it.


Probably the cable is shorted near where it exits the case.

I have fixed several such supplies.

Hammer it along the seams.

Be careful, when it is live, some of that copper foil is hot and has high
voltage pulses running around on it. Can be a shocking experience.
