If the system came with a 90W power supply, replace it with a 90W unit. Particularly with the nVidia or ATI video systems, you need the 90W adapter. The Intel integrated video systems can get by with the 65W units (but generally ship with those from the factory).
I have this adapter for travel and it works fine on my D610, in the car, on an airplane, and plugged in. I am in the Middle East right now using it and it works fine- charges my battery and runs the computer w/o any problem. I do have the Intel integrated video chipset but I have watched movies without any issues, and this is the most intensive thing that the computer does.
