Dell Inspiron 3475 AIO Series not accepting Power Source

Question

I have a Dell Inspiron 3475 AIO Series. It has been in storage for two years unused. I couldn't find the original powercord so I plugged in a Dell 110watt powercord that goes to a dell laptop, but its not accepting the power supply. The system is recommending a 65 watt or higher power cord. The laptop cord shows its 110 watts. What is the recommendtion to get this computer to accept the power supply?

If the AIO can post with the laptop 110w adapter but sends an alert message of wrong adapter detected, simply go inside bios to disable the adapter detection alert and save change. It would not show next time AIO is powered on.

Are you sure the notebook power supply is OEM?  I've never see a Dell power supply for a notebook rated at 110 W -- there are 45, 65, 90, 130, 180 and 240W  -- but not 110 W.

OP meant AC power cord or AC adapter? AC adapter is 65W but power cord is the one between the adapter and wall outlet
