I have this old HP 110 netbook I took off a buddy a few years ago. After getting a new charger for it off ebay it worked fine but I really had no use for it so into a drawer it went for about a year and half.
Im in the process of moving and came up with a use for it in my new home, but....the damn thing wont power on anymore. The charger does have a green light on it but the laptop itself doesnt light up showing its charging.
Am I right to assume that it should be able to power even if I didnt have a battery installed? I remember my very old mbp was able to run through "passthrough" without a battery.
I see on Amazon, replacement batteries are only $20 and im thinking that I should be able to power it on right when I get one to see if it actually works. Maybe I have a dud charger.
Just wanted to get some input and advice.
