[QUOTE="johnnyFIVE, post: 959586, member: 135156"] well, even more than on the plastic end, it would be on the cable by the end. The reason that happens is when you pull it pretty tight it causes the cable to flex. When the cable keeps flexing in the same place over and over the connection with the strands wont be as good. thats why it stresses me out when people pull their adapter cords really tight. Like its a tight rope from the laptop to the wall. lol, I bug my fiance about it daily. that would be my best guess. Try to borrow one form someone you know, or use the starbucks (or barneys :D) idea I had, of just asking someone to borrow it for a second. All you have to do is plug it in and see if its recognized quickly, if so just one cheap part and youre good to go. Im not 100% sure but it would make the most sense, and in this case it isnt a very big deal at all. [/QUOTE]
