My dell had this problem. I had to replace the motherboard to fix it!!! The motherboard had the plug built into it with no strain relief. The combination of a crappy designed plug and inflexable cord lasted about two years before I had to start pushing it to one side to get it to work. Finally one day it started smoking and I shut it off to find the problem. Now $300 later I have a good as new 3 year old (obsolete) laptop.
