Default Will a Faulty charger break my laptop
hey i just got my laptop working...(havent had a charger for it in ages)

anyway the new charger is a hong kong one and is bad quality, sometimes the charger wont be recognised in the laptop, unless i move or twist the chargers head.

Anyway, i dont care if the charger breaks again, as long as my laptop remains ok...is it possible for a bad charger to break my laptop, if so...what are the odds of this?

No, the charger wire melted for some reason, and they it fucked up all the power system on the laptop. I had to keep it plugged in at all times once i got it fixed.
