HP G60 535DX laptop - battery won't charge

[lizziegrace]

the power cord is loose at the connection to the computer. I'm guessing there's a solder in it's future. The laptop is 15 months old and 10 days ago I had to put in a new hard drive. It's tax season. I can't go without this computer. (I'm still re-installing all my software from the hard drive failure.)

I guess I'm not really looking for help, just sympathy and moral support. This computer's been a nightmare.

1. It's a very common problem

I used to work for a laptop manufacturer and those power receptacles were a constant source of headaches.
