Latitude Charger question
I've found an latitude D620. It's my very old pc, I want to do some tests on it, but I don't have a charger.
I've tried my Inspiron 15 charger and it works.
But I've a question - will using this charger with this pc won't damage it?
Sincerely, Maciej.

@M.Sz As long as it's a genuine Dell charger, you'll be fine. If the Inspiron charger's wattage output is lower than what the D620 is designed for, then you might see slow battery charging and reduced performance, but you won't damage anything. And if the Inspiron charger's wattage is higher, then the Latitude D620 will just ignore the extra capacity. A high wattage charger can't force a system to accept more wattage than it is designed to handle.
