The Acer One series laptops are common ones we work on and now I'm seeing this D250 model. This D250 Acer is different because instead of the traditional soldered onto the motherboard dc jack it uses a cable style dc jack that plugs into the motherboard.
I received two around in the same week and both felt pretty solid and I couldn't wiggle the power cord tip in just the right way to get them to power on. I decided to go for it and install the jack anyway and to my surprise both laptops powered on. The voltage wire had come undone causing a break in the connection.
After the new cable jacks were installed the laptops powered right up!
