With pliars, electrical tape, a knife and lots of swearing and throwing things across the room in frustration! You need a special tool for this. It would be cheaper to buy a new cable than to buy the tool! (Not to mention you would probably never use the tool a second time!)

Why would a Targus AC90U charger stop working?
I have had the same problem. I have just discovered that the 4 pin plug on the 'brick' side of the cable going on to the laptop, has broken. It seems that the tiny cylindrical conductors have sheared, and the plastic has now broken off. I have fixed it by soldering tiny bits of wire into the conductors on the cable side, applying Araldite to the point where the plastic broke, and pushing the protuding small wires into the other side of the conductors on the cable side. I am thinking it will only be a temporary fix, and I will probably be purchasing a power supply from a different manufacturer of the same spec. We'll see how long my fix stays together.
A way to hook up basic cable by yourself?
For cable internet, you typically must connect the modem to the cable line, and then any devices that will be connected up. Software is NOT necessary for today's cable modems to be utilizeable on modern OSs and computers. However if you mean cable TV, or cable internet *service*, you may not be able to do this without either working with the cable box (which is illegal without explicit permission). Some are also 'turned off' at the hub, so cannot be activated without being switched on by the cable provider. Most digital cable TV and Internet work this way. So if you're asking to steal cable, you almost can't. If you're trying to save money on an installation, it may be possible, but cable companies will often also make this a non-option.

You generally can't replace the guide without replacing the cable. If the transmission still shifts easily, you don't need to replace the cable immediately (as in, it is not an emergency) however you should plan to replace it as soon as you can. yes you do there is no getting around it, sorry
