Thanks for all the suggestions to remedy my problem. Nothing worked so today took it into our little repair shop. The problem was power adapter cord was shot (the cord to computer). So, purchased a universal AC power adapter/charger which came with a bag of adapters for every laptop in existence! Was the least cost of all the possible fixes. Wife is happy with her computer again.
