Most laptop power supplies are made for a particular brand, so the best way to test is in another Dell laptop. The other way is using a voltimeter, first testing the power cord alone, and then testing the tiny connector.

SOURCE: want safe way to piggy back a power supply for XPS 210

The simplest way to solve this will be to get a power splitter. You should get one for around 2$. It will have a connector and two plugs(used to split the power supply into two.)

your power supply has shorted out. if your machine is under warranty, have dell send out a tech. if not, take it to a shop for repair.

The power supply may have gone south or there may be an overload on the motherboard, memory or one of the drives. Unplug one drive and restart, then another and another. Remove the memory and retry. If still nothing, try another supply. If still nothing, you may need professional help.

My Dell XPS 210 makes a loud whining noise when powered up and lasts for minutes until turned off. Can you identify what the issue is and how to fix?

It sounds like a fan problem, it could be one on the case, the motherboard or in the powersupply. fans are generally inexpensive, but if it is the power supply it will be a couple more bucks to fix. There could even just be a buildup of dust on them. Compressed air can usually clean them out. HDD can also cause noises in some cases but hopefully thats not your problem.

My dell xps 210 freezes while in use the longer in use the more frequently it freezes. I have to do a hard reboot, when it freezes.

This can be a cooling problem. You should heck your fan is working properly and the air is circulating correctly in the case.
This can also happen if you upgraded some components. Maybe the power of you power supply can be not sufficient for system use.

I bought an xps 210 2 years ago. The power supply is dead

It is possible that you picked up a faulty power supply, slim, but possible. Chances are pretty good that you have one of your components drawing too much current on your power supply. The largest power drain comes from your processor and the graphics accelerator cards, however it could be a faulted motherboard or hard drive. You can replace your power supply with a larger capacity unit from a known good manufacturer. If you increase the wattage capability and look with the side off to see if any component is generating a lot more heat than usual. A larger capacity power supply should be able to handle the unusual current draw.

DELL XPS 210 WONT POWER ON. NO PROBLEM LIGHTS ON FRONT OF PC. ONLY GREEN LIGHT ON MOTHERBOARD LIGHTS UP.

The power supply may have gone south or there may be an overload on the motherboard, memory or one of the drives. Unplug one drive and restart, then another and another. Remove the memory and retry. If still nothing, try another supply. If still nothing, you may need professional help.
