    I just received a Dell Inspiron 5150 from a friend, and he said it was broken, but I wanted it to see if I could make it work. When you try and turn it on the battery light blinks maybe 10 times then stops blinking.He never gave me a power adapter so I was thinking maybe find someone who has one or buy a cheap one to see if it will work then. Or maybe it's something else? Ideas? Thanks.

    I think you are asking a question what at the same time trying to find the adapter.

    The above links will get you to sites that have the adapter.
    Additionally I think before someone here can help you diagnose the problem you need to get power to the system.
