What EXACTLY is your HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk0xxx ?  Depending on configurations/options of your machine, it MUST come with one of the following chargers

 

  • 200-W HP Smart AC adapter (PFC, slim, 4.5-mm) part # L00818-850
  • 150-W HP Smart AC adapter (PFC, slim, 4.5-mm) part # L32661-001
  • 135-W HP Smart AC adapter (PFC, RC, slim, 4.5-mm) part # L15534-001

 

90W is too weak for your machine. Is it a brand new machine ? You have to contact HP to have the right one (I don't know which one because I don't know what is your HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-dk0xxx.

 

If not a brand new machine, you may mix its charger with friend's machine.

 

Regards.
