    I have a m9700i-R1 I ordered a m9700/9750 ac adapter from ztronics.com and the voltage is correct at 19v but on the bottom of my computer it says I need 19v and 9.5a but the adapter they sent me is 19v and 7.89a will this adapter work or will I need to send it back and try and find another one somewhere else? I don't want to damage my laptop or the ac adapter. I just got it in the mail today and want to use it, but am just going to send it back tomorrow if it's the wrong one.

    This was the link to the one I ordered http://ztronics.com/en/laptop-parts-...ord=ac+adapter

    It's the wrong one if it's rated 7.89a, the m9750 (which IS the M9700i-R1 it's just they didnt update the label on the bottom) uses a Li Shin International Enterprise Corp AC Adapter Model No: 0415B19180 with output of 19v and 9.5a
