Thanks Paul ! (Paul from alt.comp.hardware.pc-homebuilt)

After close inspection of the laptop and especially the connector I realize what happened.

I think while I was trying to push/pop this connector out I pushed back one of the metal pins.

It's now probably causing a short circuit of some kind which causes the adapter to beep rapidly.

I made a video about it so you can see for yourself:

Let me know what you think ?

I am pretty sure that metal pin is bent and needs to be bent back... if I fail to do that this connector will have to be replaced and I am not sure how to do that, pretty crazy to think that this little connector ruins a 1000 euro costing laptop ! ;)

Bye for now,

P.S.: I will post some more/longer videos later on, one is kinda funny where a tiny little cut fly visits me lol, the universe ! =D But for now this short one to sum this up quickly ! ;)
