SOURCE: I have a IBM lap top that need a new power cord on
Take your laptop to the nearest Radio Shack so they can determine exactly which power cord is right for your computer.

Verify that the light on the power block is green with the cable only connected to the wall. If the light goes out when it's connected to the PC the your motherboard is bad.

Let me first ask are you sure that the power cable is hooked up the correct way? what are the chances that when he bit through the cable while it was plugged in he created a short circuit? On some laptops may say the battery is charged but if it will not hold the charge it will not turn on. Such as if there was no battery in the unit. But it sounds as if the charging circuit in the unit may be fried. You may have to take it to a repair shop and see if they can repair the circuit. But first id just replace the power brick and see what happens. You can test the battery and power brick with a volt meter to see what they are producing at. If you have further questions or need more information please let me know. Thanks, Midwest-tek
