    Hi all,

    I went away for a trip and came back home and realized I lost or left the dual power cords for my MSI. Not the whole thing though, I'm just missing the cord that plugs into the wall outlet and into the back of the power bricks.

    Question is, can I go to Radio Shack and buy generic replacements? Is that portion of the PSU interchangeable? I have the power bricks that tie together and everything that connects to the laptop so I'm hoping I'm okay here since it does seem to be a universal type of cord.

    Hoping for good news and thanks in advance!

    Edit: I did try searching and couldn't find anything. But please let me know if this should be posted elsewhere.

    What model of notebook do you have? And where are you located at?
    Radio shack may not carry the type of AC adapter with similar wattage for your system therefore we need to clarify with you first.
