IBM AC power adapter type cannot be determined

First post by: www.itbattery.com

The “IBM AC power adapter type cannot be determined” problem description




I have brand new IBM FRU 92P1139 Battery.


Battery fully charged, when I unplug the charger from the wall, but let the plug in the Inspiron for a while (let’s say a night), when I startup my computer, I get the message “The AC power adapter type cannot be determined. Your system will operate slower and the battery will not charge. Please connect a Dell 90W AC adapter or higher for best system operation” (needless to say that the power adapter IS a Dell 90W…).

Unplugging and replugging the adapter solves the problem.


The problem happens frequently at IBM FRU 92P1141 Battery, IBM FRU 92P1137 Battery, IBM 02K6651 Battery and so on.
