    Are dv9000 and dv6000 AC Chargers interchangable?

    Can i use my dv9700 AC Charger on a dv6500?

    Thanks. I know the dv9700 charger blok is slightly bigger, but just want to make sure... Dont want to ruin the laptop or charger,

    Thanks. :) :)

    dv9700 has a 90watt adapter while the dv6500 has 65watts. Im guessing its a DV6500 with an integrated graphics card.

    But yes the dv6500 can use the 90watt adapter. The dv9700 cannot use the 65watt because its not enough power.

    I suggest double checking the adapter specs first to be safe. Check the voltages and such are the same.
