HELP! My telly\'s broke...

Do any of you have any electronics knowledge? I bought a 'Manhattan' LCD flat screen portable from John Lewis about 2 years ago. It had a 3 year warranty, but muggins here has lost all the receipts and warranty details

I know what's wrong with it because it's got one of those inline power supplies that is supposed to provide 12 volts to the gubbins and a quick check with a multimeter shows no 12V. So I just need another power supply.

Trouble is, the PSU is a hefty one. It's rated at 5 amps and all the stuff I can find at Maplin and the usual outlets is nowhere near that rating. The plug is also fairly hefty, standard sort of thing but twice the diameter. Any ideas of where I can get one of these? short of buying an arc welder and hooking the telly up to that.
