Treći problem s kojim sam se počeo suočavati na svom novom Dell prijenosnom računalu bio je taj što sam s vremena na vrijeme, unatoč korištenju AC adaptera ili punjača koji je došao uz ultrabook, često vidio ovaj okvir s porukom prilikom punjenja.

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

Ovo se nikada nije dogodilo na mom ranijem Dell XPS desktopu, i zapravo je bilo prilično neugodno! Pretražujući malo po internetu^(Internet) otkrio sam da je to problem s kojim se mnogi suočavaju. Neki su rekli da je ovaj problem sada riješen u novijim Dell uređajima. Ali izgleda da nije tako, jer sam još uvijek vidio ovu poruku na svom novom ultrabooku.

Nije moguće odrediti vrstu adaptera za izmjeničnu struju

Adapter je radio i dobro se punio. Onda kada sam isključio glavno napajanje na nekoliko sati i zatim ponovno počeo puniti, vidio sam ovu poruku. Slično, nakon što sam ponovno prebacio stroj iz stanja mirovanja^(Sleep) , često sam vidio ovu poruku. Ponekad sam jednostavno isključio, a zatim ga uključio, vidio ovaj okvir s pogreškom.

Ovo je zapravo bilo prilično frustrirajuće. Taman^(Just) kad sam riješio problem koji se čini da vaš sustav nema omogućenu tehnologiju Intel Rapid Start pri svakom pokretanju i problem treperenja svjetline zaslona^{(screen brightness flickering)} , počeo sam vidjeti ovu pogrešku!

Pa, ako i vi vidite ovu poruku, evo nekoliko stvari koje možete učiniti.

1] Izvadite kabel za napajanje iz prijenosnog računala i ponovno ga spojite uz silu uvijanja^{(reconnect it with force twisting it a bit)} dok ga ubacujete. Ako je potrebno, također ga isključite iz zidne utičnice i ponovno utaknite utikač. Ovo je zapravo riješilo moj problem. Čak i kada je moj kabel u početku bio čvrsto i ispravno umetnut, znao sam vidjeti grešku. Ali to je učinilo da okvir s pogreškom nestane. Ali onda, ovo nemoguće je sada rješenje, zar ne!? Ne mogu to stalno raditi!

Zašto se to događa?^{(Why does this happen?)}

Dell na ovaj način reagira ako ne može prepoznati ili odrediti vrstu adaptera za izmjeničnu struju. U ovom scenariju naći ćete sljedeće:

Vaš sustav radi sporije
Baterija se neće puniti ili će se puniti sporo.

Ono što možete učiniti je provjeriti zdravlje vaše baterije . Također provjerite radi li vaš AC adapter dobro.

2] Ako vas poruka i dalje muči i sigurni ste da je zdravlje vašeg testa dobro i da koristite ispravan adapter izmjenične struje, možete, ako želite , onemogućiti upozorenja adaptera u BIOS-u^{(disable the Adapter Warnings in BIOS)} . AKO niste upoznati s BIOS-om^(BIOS) , predlažem da to ne činite. Ako ste zadovoljni postavkama BIOS- a, ponovno pokrenite Windows 8 i tijekom ponovnog pokretanja pritisnite tipku F2 da biste pokrenuli BIOS .

upozorenje za dell adapter

Kad ste ovdje, odaberite karticu Napredno^(Advanced) i pomoću tipkovnice idite do Upozorenja adaptera^{(Adapter Warnings)} . Postavite ga na Onemogućeno^(Disabled) . Spremite postavke i izađite.

Dakle, vidite, ovo nisu baš rješenja – samo zaobilazna rješenja! Tri problema s mojim novim Dell laptopom! Nisam siguran što reći! U prva dva slučaja problemi su izazivali dodaci Intel ili Dell programi. ^(Dell)Nadajmo se da se neću suočiti s drugim problemima sa svojim novim Dellom^(Dell) !

The AC power adapter type cannot be determined in Dell

The third problem I started facing on my nеw Dell laptop was that every now and then, in spite of using the AC power adapter or charger which came along with the ultrabook, I frequently got to see this messagе box, when charging.

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

This never happened on my earlier Dell XPS desktop, and was actually pretty annoying! On searching a bit on the Internet I found that this was an issue many were facing. Some said that this issue was now resolved in the newer Dell machines. But it doesn’t look to be the case, as I was still seeing this message on my new ultrabook.

The AC power adapter type cannot be determined

The adapter worked and charged fine. Then when I shut off the main power supply for a couple of hours and then start charging again, I got to see this message. Similarly, after having resumed the machine from Sleep, I got to see this message frequently. Sometimes, simply turning the power off and then turning it on made me see this error box.

This was pretty frustrating actually. Just when I had resolved the Your system does not appear to have Intel Rapid Start Technology enabled error on every start-up and the screen brightness flickering issue, I started seeing this error!

Well, if you too are seeing this message, here are a few things you could do.

1] Take out the power cord from the laptop and reconnect it with force twisting it a bit while inserting it. If need be also unplug it from the wall socket and reinsert the plug. This actually solved my problem. Even when my cord was inserted tightly and properly initially itself, I used to see the error. But doing this, made the error box go away. But then, this cant is the solution now, can it!? I can’t keep doing this all the time!

Why does this happen?

Dell reacts this way if it is not able to recognize or determine the AC power adapter type. In this scenario, you will find that:

Your system is operating slower
The battery will not charge or will charge slowly.

What you can do is check the health of your Battery. Also, check if your AC Adapter is functioning fine.

2] If the message continues to trouble you and you are sure that your batter health is good and that you are using the correct AC power adapter, then you may if you wish disable the Adapter Warnings in BIOS. IF you are not familiar with BIOS, I suggest you do not do this. If you are comfortable with BIOS settings then restart your Windows 8 and during restart, press the F2 key, to boot into BIOS.

dell adapter warning

Once here, select the Advanced tab and navigate with the help of the keyboard to Adapter Warnings. Set it to Disabled. Save the settings and Exit.

So you see, these are not exactly solutions – just workarounds! Three problems with my new Dell laptop! Not sure what to say! In the first two cases, it was the addon Intel or Dell programs that were causing issues. Let us hope I do not face any other problems with my new Dell!

Visiting the Dell Support Center may be an option you may want to consider if you wish to escalate the matter.
