I have just bought a HP Pavilion dv9340 notebook PC. I noticed that the
power supply connector fits rather loosely, so that it rattles about and
doesnt fit snugly in the socket in the PC. In fact, the connector is so
loose that the power supply can easily become disconnected (by slight
movement of the connector in the socket) if you move the PC even a small
distance. Its almost as if the wrong size connector is attached to the end
of the power lead.

Am I being too fussy? Has anyone else had this problem with their connector
lead?

I can answer my own question now!

I wasnt being too fussy; I was being too careful. I eventually tried to
push the power connector into its socket using a lot more force than I had
originally used, and it went kerlick!! The connector now works perfectly. I
suppose I was being careful because I didnt want to break anything on my
nice new notebook PC.

Weve all done that! I just bought a new phone and couldnt get the cover open
where the micro SD card goes in. Nearly had a heart attack forcing my thumbnail

under one edge. As it came away there was no certainty in my mind that I hadnt
broken it.
