hat is far from being true, not long ago, I worked in a computer repair shop, and we frequently worked on dells that had less than standard Dell Inspiron 8600 AC Adapter, we would do exactly this on the ones that the PSU's died in, and we NEVER had a board fry due to a standard Dell AC Adapter power supply. now, on the super compact systems, we would usually need to use a mini power supply, but still, no problems other than they were weak, and on occasion would shut the system down if you had both the DVD drives and the hard disk spin up simultaneously. On some HP's, the Dell Inspiron 8600 AC Adapter have a fan connector that MUST be attatched to the board on a certain set of pins, or it will not boot.
So i picked up this Dell AC Adapter and found that it did not fit my stupid dell box so i ended up doing the following. The problem was i got one with 2 connectors not one. but even then it would not of fitted.
step 1 Size up pace for Dell Inspiron 8600 AC Adapter.So just hold it up to space where to put it and see what needs to be cut out.
step 2 So cut out this section and away we go
step 3 And more cutting...and keep on measuring up and cutting and finally we get a hole that is as follows. and as a suggestion from TheScientist and a very good suggestion should take a file to edges so do not get cut.
Be careful with cheap high wattage Dell Inspiron 8600 AC Adapter power supplies. They're not well made and use cheap components. Those things can not only die prematurely, they can take out other computer components.
