Hi:
It is perfectly fine to use your notebook while it is charging. It just takes a little longer to charge the battery.
Nowadays it is OK to leave the charger connected almost all the time.
Your notebook has a smart battery and smart charger and charging shuts off when the battery is fully charged.
You can read this HP document on how to get the most life out of your notebook's battery...
