I recently purchased an affordable Windows XP laptop from eBay for leisure. Upon unplugging and plugging it back in, it had no lights at all. However, when I turned the cord twist, for a brief moment the plugged-in light appeared before it switched off again. Could this be due to my ONN adapter or the power jack? The model is A75 - S211.

It seems there might be a loose connection inside the laptop. Does it move slightly?

It seems like you're referring to a situation where slight movement allows approval, but you haven't experienced it before.

Ensure you remove the bottom part and verify the power outlet connection correctly. ( REMOVE BATTERY FIRST)
