You may use a Toshiba PSU if :
- the voltage required is the same. Most Toshiba supplies are rated at
15volts.
- the connector fits.
- the polarity at the connector is the same. The outer part of the barrel
connector is negative with the inside being positive.
- the maximum amperage is enough. Assuming the voltage is 15volts, and the
max. wattage required is 60, then the max. amperage is 4amps.
