To clarify, my new puppy got ahold of the still- plugged in laptop charger. She's just fine, but my power cord is completely destroyed. The AC Adapter box is perfectly fine. The puppy just chewed through the half that plugged into the wall, which from the wall plugged into the adapter, and of course from the adapter it then plugs into my computer. Well, my question is this: is it possible to just buy the plug in cord, rather than buying the whole new adapter??? I don't need a new adapter, just a new cord. =(

IF it's a standard 2 pin connector, no problem they can be purchased for a couple bucks on ebay. or if you need it quicker, try new egg( the cable is 6' and costs 21.97, with shipping(link below)). That's a little more than i'm willing to pay, but as a computer geek i have cables like this laying around.

From searching the web, I'd like to say yes. But it maybe better to buy a whole new adapter, this way if the old one is in any way, frayed, bent, cut, then its better to buy a new one. Check out craigslist, freecycle in your area to see if anyone has an extra, check used computer resale and repair stores to see if they have one that will work. Barring that, try ebay, batteries plus, or online. in worst case scenario, buy directly from Toshiba, that way you know you'll be getting one that works with your laptop.
