    This morning like every morning I turn on my laptop to work. Everything is fine until the battery needed charging. So I get up and get charger, connect and nothing. The charger light is not even on and I hear this beeping noise as if it's about to explode lol.

    Anyways, lucky me, today was the last day for my dell warranty, I called in and got a replacement. Coming in 3-4 days they say.

    Soon after the call I said let's see if I am even luckier and decided to plug in charger.. and voila, it works.

    Now, is it safe to use this charger or not? Anyone with experience? Should I risk it? :eek:
