coming off of a long weekend, it is an early dismissal today and it looks like a snow day tmrw I am quite frankly bored out of my mind.. so it got me thinking.... my mom has an old gateway laptop died on her 5 years ago... it has no battery and no hard drive. so instead of ripping it apart, I want to see if can run windows on it again. I have a hard drive laying around that I could use so storage isn't a problem but power is. for some unknown reason, it doesn't have a battery or an AC adapter... looking at the power port on the back it looks like another old laptop (from around the same era) charger that we do have and may even work with my current laptop charger... (but I make no bets) My main problem is that when if the charger manages to fit into the port how do I know something won't spontaneously combust and light me and or my house on fire... so thats why I came here before I do something potentailly life threating! so tell me forums, what should I do.
