Trouble is how do I get HP to replace it for me? They just go MB or bios. After all the repairs I practically have a new laptop- especially if I get the PSU replaced... even the screens been replaced! What tests do you know of to diag the PSU? I've tried battery, adaptor, all the same result so nothing gained there. The common factor is simply the PSU itself, but I need some more evidence to convince them.
