Expert advice on "Dell AC adapter type can not be determined"

In relation to this issue, I was also disappointed with the restrictions imposed for the PSID signal on my Dell Inspiron 1545 battery. So this is my solution.

OK the ID function is designed it for a reason, Dell, so that to preserve the battery, etc., but with e-mail support with a request for a software override or some other solution to be able to switch off the PSID requirement it could either help or would not. I just recommended purchase (as people have said) a bigger part of their cargo equipment etc. I also think that's a bit unreasonable.

They could easily update the BIOS to allow the user to define this function.

Anyway, I ummmed errred and for a while and then thought, why not move the mysterious ID chip from the Dell Latitude D600 AC Adapter into the laptop permanently, and drag the middle ID pin so the laptop always thinks it has a proper Dell Latitude D610 AC Adapter connected. I'm concerned. And you can also adjust the power saving mode on screen anyway.

Now I do not recommend this for most people to be fairly difficult. I am an electronics engineer and have experience with circuits etc. and it took me a few days to do it with Dell Inspiron 1520 battery. Remember warranties probably go out the window.

The first problem is to get your good Dell Inspiron 5150 AC Adapter apart. The case is glued and withought battles it completely, takes some effort to get apart with blunt knives etc. Then unsolder the end of the metal shield nearest the output cord to the back of the board.
