Not always. I know HP laptops have both, but I have no idea how it decides which one to use. I checked through the manual at Toshiba and it says to try removing the battery and the charger, and then press the power button to remove any lasting charge. Then insert the battery and try to start the laptop with only the battery. If that does not work plug in the charger and try with both. If no go then try with just the charger.

After that I am out of ideas.
