The ampage is the maximum potential supply the transformer can give..... so providing the voltages are the same.... it will work just fine! its not a toshiba power supply thats broken is it?..

Yes the higher current rated power supply will be fine.

Using a supply rated less would cause the ps to overheat, and fail.
