Compaq Presario XL126 Power Adapter
If you decide to buy an non-Compaq adapter, please check on both the volts and amps outputs. When purchasing a replacement charger, selecting the Compaq OEM charger is the best one to choose. Because Compaq uses one power charger that is most likely used on other laptop models, make sure you check the part number for the correct one. A universal power adapter is another possibility if you are desperate. The Compaq Presario XL126 power adapter has two main uses, to charge the onboard battery while simultaneously providing power for the laptop.
Major symptoms of a worsening laptop charger
- Most Compaq AC adapters can get quite warm when plugged in for any length of time
- Battery does not charge whatsoever
- The laptop does not operate while solely using the AC adapter
