Hi supremenacho,
Please try the below mentioned steps and check if the problem fixes:
1. Download and install the latest BIOS from here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/inspiron-m511r?driverId=12NV4&osCode=WW1&fileId=2963412117
Note: Plug your computer to a good, working UPS before you update the BIOS. If you experience a loss of AC power or a significant voltage sag/spike during the BIOS flash, you will either have to buy a new BIOS chip or buy a new motherboard.
2. Check the AC Adapter port on the computer for broken or bent pins.
3. Run Dell Diagnostics. To run the diagnostics restart/power on the computer and start tapping the F12 Key when you see the Dell Logo, select Diagnostics from the Menu and let the test run. If the diagnostics fails and gives an error code please check this link for details about the error: https://www5.nohold.net/Dell/ukp.aspx?pid=3&ruleid=2591&login=1&donelr=1
Note: In case of expired warranty scenario, I would be able to provide limited support, which will not cover part replacement, software support and onsite technician.
Do reply with results.
