When posting in a Windows XP newsgroup then it would help mentioning the
word "Windows" once every so often. If this is a hardware question then a
hardware newsgroup might be a better place to post it.

Dell says?
(There web pages, parts and accessories pages, etc work whether you have a
warranty or not.)

My suggestion - just buy an adapter for the adapter you have/can get easily
that adapts to what you need. There are many universal ones.

Or call Dell. They'll sell it to you/give you the part number, etc.

If the power pack states that is is capable of 110-120 volt 60 cycle and
220-250 volt 50 cycle AC input then simply purchase an adaptor plug which
will convert the standard US 2 plug with ground to the standard England
plug. See here for examples of the two types of plugs you may encounter in
the United Kingdom http://www.walkabouttravelgear.com/c_uk.htm and most of
Europe uses http://www.walkabouttravelgear.com/c_ger.htm.

This web site has proven invaluable for me when I am going to a foreign
country to see exactly what is used there.
http://www.walkabouttravelgear.com/wwelect.htm

I have a complete set of adaptors for my computer's power supply. Also note
whether your computer power cable is two or three wire where it plugs into
the wall. The two round plug adapter will NOT work with a three wire US
plug. For that you need the three wire adaptor (listed at $7.00 on the
site.)

You could always look for a replacement for the DA90PS2-00 on a UK laptop
parts site.

http://www.uklaptoppower.com/item-ac.php/dell,studio_14,laptop-ac-adapter/

It would help if someone from the UK would respond, to make sure this
is what they use for typical outlets. This is a dual switched outlet,
with shutters on the non-earth pins. It looks like it might match
the cord end on the above adapter. Wikipedia has a few different articles
on power outlets.

Yes all (or at least *almost* all) do.

Those are useful pictures, but in terms of buying from them, they seem
expensive to me. I have a pretty complete set of such adapters; I
can't remember where I bought it or what I paid for it, but it wasn't
very much.

And I see that Amazon.com has an "All-in-One Travel Power Plug Adapter
for US, UK, EU, AU" for $4.83. I think I'll get one of these the next
time I order from Amazon, since it's easier to have one adapter to
travel with, rather than a set of them.

In addition
I'd check eBay UK
I bought a 90W PS for my Vostro 1500 for 9 bucks
Wasn't OEM but Meet's all the Voltage requirements

Yes, Ken, I didn't order from them either. Wish I could remember where I
bought my "set" of individual adaptors but I purchased them over 5 years
ago. They were not too expensive then and IIRC paid about $7 for the entire
set.

I have tried the all-in-one power plug adaptor and didn't like it. Bought
one from Radio Shack (yeah, I know but supposedly a good one) and it just
didn't fit correctly and was also the size of all my other adaptors
combined. Another model also just didn't fit my needs. Still have both of
them but leave them home and take my individual adaptors.

So our memories of this are the same!

Thanks for the info. I'm almost talked out of getting one, but this is
Amazon rather than Radio Shack. And worst case, I'm out only $4.83.

BTW there is no such thing as a European wall socket/plug. Every country
has its own. The voltage is always in the 220-240 range, usually 50Hz so any
PSU that accepts this range will do. An American lead and a multi-adapter are
as good as any.

In fact, even the wiring schemes and regulations differ. The cable we use
here is not permitted in France, for example, because they insulate the earth
wire, we do not.

Yet, Brussels recently forced us to start using cable with brown/blue cores
instead of red/black.

Europe=Crazy. But then, bureaucracy and commonsense never did mix.

I need European Plug type, not UK. I don't want use US/EU adapters.
Can someone tell me exact Dell part No of EU version of 3-prong Power Cord
for PA-10/PA-12 AC adapter?
Existing cord is 3-wire flat Power Cord "hammer" head type. Head is like
this, but "hammer" type:

Yes, have asked Dell Support Representative. They say they "have no this
type of power cord". And they "only have Power Cables for US, Argentina and
Brasil." and recommended use Targus Travel Adapter (which is far more
expensive).

 

If this is what you're looking for, you can get a whole power supply for
less than $20US.
