This appears to be a common problem. Sounds like the current is not being shared while in use. If you know the battery to be good, I'd check the output voltage of the charger 1st and see it is putting out the right voltage. The chargers for the Mini series are weird, so may be worthwhile borrowing another charger to eliminate it from the problems.
After that... you may need to get the laptop checked by Dell
