The Dell Inspiron is a home purpose laptop with a huge 17" lcd. I don't see a lot of these probably because they don't get used as much as a portable unit (sits on the desk most of the time).
This 1720 came in with a loose dc jack. You can hold the power cord adapter tip in just the right way to get the laptop to work and it feels loose when you use a pen and move it around.
The Inspiron 1720 laptops do need to be completely taken apart to the motherboard to access the dc jack. It also needs to be de-soldered and new power plug soldered back on.
It uses the standard nine pin dc jack dell has been using for quite a while.
Once replaced the laptop powers on!
