Unfortunately you won't be able to power on your computer any other way. Your best bet is to get a DC jack from an online retailer like: http://www.machinaelectronics.com/store/buypart/Asus_Eee_1000_1005HA/DC-P098and then take that over to a qualified laptop tech for soldering.

The power plug in port you refer to is the DC Power Jack.The AC adapter (Charger) converts AC electricity into DC electricity.DC electricity has two poles. Positive, and Negative.(Just like on a D cell flashlight battery)The center pin of the DC Power Jack is the Positive connection.The outer metal spring-like pieces, on the inside of the cylindrical shape surrounding the center pin, are the Negative connection.(The pieces of spring-like metal, all connect to the Negative connection in the DC Power Jack)Example of a replacement DC Power Jack, for the Asus Eee PC 1005HA Netbook,http://www.batterysupport.com/asus-eee-pc-1005ha-jack-p-303527.html[ Note*Cannot agree with the replacement instructions they offer, at the bottom of the page.Not everyone has access to a hot-air gun.

I realize I'm providing a solution to an older problem, and may never hear back from the original poster. I am providing a solution because in the event it may help someone else.The center pin you state is part of the DC Power Jack. The jack on the laptop, that the plug from the AC adapter (Charger) plugs into.The center pin is the Positive connection.The outer metal pieces, on the inside of the cylindrical shape surrounding the center pin, make up the Negative connection.http://www.lapdiy.com/asus-eeepc-eee-pc-1015ped-netbook-dc-power-jack-connector-p-581.htmlClick on the two views shown of the jack to enlarge.The view on the left, shows how the jack normally sits on the motherboard. Front faces you, and in upright position.The view on the right shows the jack upside down, and the back faces you.Note the 4 metal tangs which protrude up. Each has a squarish hole in it.These tangs go through the motherboard, and are soldered to the motherboard. These tangs are Negative connections.They connect to the metal pieces inside the cylindrical shape.Looking at the Back of the jack, (Right view), you see a metal tang coming out of the center.This tang is the Positive connection. It attaches straight to the Center Pin.To replace the DC Power Jack, the Eee needs to be completely disassembled down to the motherboard in your hands.(Observe Anti-Static Precautions. Use an ESD wrist strap. Average cost is around $3 to $6. Connect the alligator clip to a good ground source. { I connect to an unpainted surface, of the metal frame of an open, empty desktop computer case )The broken DC Power Jack is c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y removed from the motherboard, and after the area is prepped, the new DC Power Jack is soldered into place.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2htZGio8es&feature=relatedRegards,joecoolvette

1) Remove ALL power. Remove the AC adapter (Charger) and Battery.2) It would be best to buy, and wear an ESD wrist strap.(Electro Static Discharge)The average cost is around $3 to $6.Available in a multitude of stores.Connect it's alligator clip to a good ground source.(I connect to an unpainted surface, of the metal frame of an open, empty desktop computer case )You will be operating in the middle of exposed hardware, and circuitry, that is EASILY Static shocked. (A Processor for example, is the MOST susceptible computer hardware component to Static shock)3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjQV8kTk508&feature=related4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrdyWpumP_4&feature=related5) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE85wKWzehE&feature=related6) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oEZPESpuNw&feature=relatedCMOS battery is on the bottom of the motherboard.Regards,joecoolvette

One way to clear an Asus PC of problems or viruses is to restore it to its original factory settings. This will wipe the computer clean and give you a fresh start. The idea of restoring your laptop may be intimidating, but there is no programming involved. In fact, these laptops are designed to be restored in a short period of time.

1Turn off the Eee PC. Press the power button or select the shut down option from the computer's main desktop screen.

2.Turn the unit on and press the "F9" when the flash (logo) screen appears. A menu will appear with a list of options to choose from.

3.Select the "Restore Factory Settings" option from the bottom of the list in the menu and type "Yes" when prompted to verify the reset.


4.Press "Enter" when prompted by the computer to reboot the system. Wait a few seconds for the system to reboot.

5.Follow the prompts on screen to accept the licensing agreement and configure your settings.

I am assuming you are talking about the bios password. I recommend using unlockbiosrecovery.com and for $20 they can unlock your bios and they guarantee it, so you can't lose. I use them a lot in my work repairing laptops and they have a 100% success ratio for me, saving me a ton of time and money.
