My netbook, an Asus Eee 1005HAB stopped charging after the small metal piece for the charger was pushed back enough for it to stop working, the charger itself was messed up so I though to buy a new charger, I bougght the charger and it worked, but on many occasions it started to move over to the wall of the Power input and I would have to push it to the middle with a small knife.

Now I tried to place my charger and it wasn't working so I moved it around a bit without really looking, well a few seconds later I realize I accidently pulled out the metal stub and got it stuck onto the actual charger tip. Is there a way to get this fixed without having to buy a new laptop? I am running on the last of laptop battery so I hope to find out soon.


Thanks ahead of time for the help

Cool, I need to know, would this cost more than buying a new one?

I do power jack repairs for my local computer repair shop. My boss charges customers a flat rate of $65 plus parts. I'd say it's worth that much, at least. Call a local shop in your area and see how much they'd charge you.

Thanks
