i have an inspiron 4150 and a couple days ago when i was using it my battery indicator came on like the computer wasnt plugged into a power source, but it was. so i turned it off for a while and when i turned it back on everything seemed to be fine, but after 20-30 minutes of use the laptop just turned off, it didnt shut down or anything, it just turned off, now every since it wont turn back on, none of the lights come on and the battery isnt charging. has anybody seen this before, or know what the probelem is?

sounds like the charger stopped working ,and battery died ,you need to use a multimeter and see if the charger is putting out any power ,if you don't have a multimeter take the charger to a computer repair shop and have them check it for yo u
