Pavillion G7
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am using an HP Pavillion G7 Notebook PC.  It appears that I have an issue with my power bar or cord.  It is producing a flashing light and is not charging the battery.  I conducted the battery test and the battery checks out ok. Additionally, I have checked out the power bar and cord and there is no apparent damage or issue with the outlets in my home.  I would like to feel comfortable that just getting a new power bar and cord will work effectively since I will no doubt be out of warranty and the power bar is expensive.  Also, I need help figuring out how to find the order number so that I can be sure that I'm getting the right one.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the rapid feedback Banhien!  My product #: LZ881AV.  My Model: g71-1100.  Any thoughts on how to resolve?  The battery is rapidly draining without getting a charge.  As I mentioned, I ran the HP battery test and the battery checks out 'OK'.
