No matter how to advance our technology is some of the gadgets like cables, chargers, will always fray. Because of being with you and helping you for so many years, it may begin to fray. Now, changing your cables, again and again, can be a great pain for you but you can easily try to check the basic issues if you can solve it on your own.
Check the Plugging
The very foolish mistake we do is to not plug our cable correctly and then getting worried about it and trust us that no technology can make an unplugged cable work. So before looking for anyone and doing something just check if the cable is connected properly to your PC.
Check the Battery
There are some laptops that come with removable batteries, if your laptop is one then just take out your battery and keep holding the power button for 10 to 15 minutes. Then plug the cable and turn your laptop on without putting the battery back. If your laptop starts working properly then probably the problem is in your battery and not with your cable.
If you have the laptop from which you can’t take the battery out then you must take it to a professional if you do not have proper knowledge about it.
