Would a differen watt AC adapter damage my Compaq 180676-001 Laptop?

The amperage rating also does not matter as long as it is higher than the one you are replacing. The most important thing is that the output voltage. Make sure the voltage is exactly the same as your old Compaq 180676-001 ac adapter. Take 90W AC adapter for example, it would be better for your 180676-001 laptop as it will be under less stress when charging and would run cooler than a 65w, as long as the voltage is correct that will be fine.
