The AC adapter will be the cheapest component to replace, that's for sure.

Though if your new battery took a charge through the AC adapter, then the adapter must be good. Unless it went bad sometime after charging that battery...

It may not be this way with IBMs, but most laptops I've encountered will power up under wall power, even if the battery's not physically in the machine. Which leads me to suspect the adapter.
