The gateway NV Series laptops are very common ones we're working on these days. Common NV laptops are NV51, 52, 53, 57, 59, and others.
This NV52 came in with a physically broken dc jack. It uses the six pin, 1.65mm dc jack that Acer used for years and since they bought gateway they now use it. It's a little better design than the previous generation gateways (MA, M Series, MT, MX, ML).
The NV laptops do need to be completely taken apart to access the dc jack. It also needs to be de-soldered and a new jack soldered on. These aren't easy to de-solder and you will need the proper tools and know how to get the old dc jack off safely.
Once replaced the laptop powers on!
