It seems that my laptop's power supply fault has reached another level. The Charging Pin has fallen out and now I have no way to charge it.

For the last two years or so, the pin in the centre of the hole where you put the charging plug in has been sort of loose. It would not stay in the middle. This caused some problems whilst it was not the end of the world - I could simply just hold the laptop upside down so that the pin was in the right place, insert the charger, turn the laptop the right way up and then fiddle around so it got a good connection.

However, a few days ago I got a nasty suprise; it stopped charging. I picked the laptop up to investigate and heard a rattling.

Not good.
