    Sorry if this sounds obvious, but my power supply cable is plugged into the supply, but I'm not getting any charge from it.

    The sockets fine, the black box thingy in the middle of the cable is lighting, but the battery charging light on laptop isn't lighting. Checked and cleaned (blew on!) all connections.

    Am I about to fade away...

    Are they easy to replace, its a Dell Inspiron 1501?

    Thanks

    It could be that you battery is faulty and not charging? If the green light is on on the power supply its a pretty good indicator its working ok but you might want to get someone to test it with a multimeter to check the voltage comming out.
    Remove the battery from the laptop and try powering it on with just the AC Adapter plugged in to see if its working ok.
