You posted earlier
It was my analogy that the socket in the laptop
that accepts the external charger was bad.
I also relayed that is what killed the other power supplies.
I also relayed that it is most likely causing the overheating.


What is inside the internals
I do not know how the power input connector links to the unit.
If it is hard wired to the board it would be a simple task for me to replace
it.
Ben would know this answer.

Possibly a loose power connector on the notebook motherboard, unfortunately all
too common with HPaq notebooks... Ben Myers

Probably only needs the power socket resoldering or if it is really damaged,
a replacement socket fitting. That is if one can be obtained as power
sockets are hard to come by.
Expect to pay around £90 + Vat.
If it cannot be repaired it will need a replacement motherboard which will
render it, scrap for spares only.

If your unit is a preasrio 2100 laptop
The jack is not part of the motherboard
It is a separate part
I believe
Ben would know for sure.
My memory is not as good as it used to be
