Hey guys, what I'm trying to do is revive an old laptop of mine, specifically a Samsung NC210. The factory power adapter died long ago and from what I've seen buying a new one off of Ebay will cost me over €200 (Definitely not giving that much for an adapter) I found a Lenovo one for €8 and its supplying the exact same amount of power as the factory adapter. Is it okay if I buy an adapter that's from a different manufacturer?

Thanks in advance,
 
Solution
As long as the Voltage, Amperage & connector ( "+" is to the same place) are an exact match then it will work. Anything else is a big NO. Amperage can be larger but never less.
