Help: Using 19.5V adaptor for 19.0V Laptop power input

Ok so I have HP Pavilion DV6 3006Tx Laptop and is 2010 model and its power supply input specs are:

Input
18.5Vdc - 3.5A
19.0Vdc - 4.74A

and it came with power adapter (HP part no. 608428-004)that says
Output
+19V - 4.74A - 90W max

Couple of days ago my Laptop stopped charging and I got power adaptor tested with a multimeter and it was outputting under 17V. So went to local computer shop and similar adapter was not available. So bought another one as I have some important work to do and cant wait 5-7 days for the one similar to original to arrive. So bought one with following specs:
HP part number: 677777-003
Output
19.5V - 4.62A - 90W
Connector Pin polarity diagram on Adapter label is similar to the one on Laptop

So my question is will it fry something in the long run? So far it is running ok.

Also the laptop battery is on its last legs and its specs are:
10.8V - 55Wh
