If it is the connection into the PS, then you may be able to on your own or at a shop, either replace the PS or correction the boroken connection between the plug receptical and PS.

If the plug has a broken wire, then you may need to splice in a new plug.

I work at a Help Desk that sees this issue more often than not with HP's and can be fixed with a solder job.
