Sorry lovely, if you mean the socket that the power supply plugs into the few laptops that I have repaired for that problem, have been such a pain to unfasten and then put together again, for the few seconds it would take to do the repair, (which would cost next to nothing) just doesn't seem worth it. I think they design this fault in deliberately, to make it a throw away item!
