Try wiggling the adapter and see if you can get power to the notebook if you hold it in a certain position.
The problem may not be the adapter, it could be the connector on the notebook.

this is EXACTLY what happened to my Toshiba. You need to take it to a technician, you're having PSU issues. This problem is caused by Toshiba's notorious overheating issues, but its a simple enough fix. One of the molex (?) connectors inside the lappy has probably melted.
