This Acer Aspire 7740 came in with a physically broken dc jack that was rattling around inside the laptop. It's a Windows 7 system so it was probably dropped or the cord was yanked on. It uses the standard six pin, 1.65mm dc jack Acer has been using for years.
The 7740 needs to be completely taken apart to access the dc jack. It also needs to be de-soldered and a new dc plug soldered on. If you don't have the know how and correct tools this job will be impossible.
Once the old jack is replaced the laptop powers on and charges the battery!
